A 6/49 ticket will do you no good. That auction link is from 2003, and the current owner of that coin has no intention of selling it...

With 2 made, it might be the most expensive Canadian coin, but it's not the rarest (unless you assume that all one-offs aren't "rare" in quite the same way, in which case I'll just casually go away)...

These ones, are rarer. Mintage of one. Sold by the Royal Canadian Mint on ebay in 2003 with proceeds going to charity. Hard to believe that was a decade ago. I held each one in my hands at Torex in 2009, after Proof Positive Coins bought the items from the original ebay winner.

I wish I could own the voyageur dollar (because it looks like a nickel dollar)...

I don't personally consider the 1911 dollar to be an actual silver dollar, since it was not a business strike. The set starts at 1935 IMHO.
