2021 RCM 1 Kilo Ag $1 The Quintessential Voyageur Dollar
This impressive one-kilogram silver coin from 2021 offers a grand canvas for one of Canada's most celebrated numismatic designs. Struck in 0.9999 pure silver with a polished proof finish, the massive piece has an incredibly limited mintage of just 400 pieces, making it a remarkable sight for enthusiasts of Canadian artistry. The reverse of the coin showcases a legendary scene originally drawn in pencil by Emanuel Hahn. It depicts a voyageur and an Indigenous guide paddling a canoe loaded with furs, navigating past wind-swept pine trees under the shimmering ribbons of the aurora borealis. This specific release pays tribute to both Hahn's iconic Voyageur design and the classic dollar coin that first bore it. On the obverse, the coin features a detailed portrait of King George V, replicating the work of Sir E.B. MacKennal. This side carries the Latin inscription GEORGVS V REX IMPERATOR ANNO REGNI XXV. The release marks the 85th anniversary of the final year this specific royal portrait was issued, bridging two eras of Canadian design on a single, monumental silver canvas.
