I received this coin today, it is a larger than life Loonie as far
as silver loonies go. It is similar in size to the traditional
silver dollar. Comparison pictures to a loonie from the 30th
Anniversary Set reveal a great big old coin, with the Loonie
attempting take-off on the reverse. Scratches are on the capsule.


Face Value: $1
Mintage: 24,995
Composition: 92.5% Ag, 7.5% Cu
Weight (g): 25.18
Diameter(mm): 36.07
Finish: Proof

Nice coin. I had a couple of these and sold them - not regret it a bit.

Nice "milestone" coins.

The last 1987-2017 set very well crafted, and the 1987-1917 as well.
Simple, affordable and with good taste.
