Canadian silver dollars were struck for circulation between 1935 and 1967 from an alloy of 80% silver with 20% copper, with each coin containing 0.6 troy ounces of pure silver. Most have the standard voyageur design, although a few commemoratives have other designs.
1967 saw the celebration of the 100th anniversary of Canadian Confederation. All 1967 coin denominations, from the cent to the dollar, bore designs of Canadian animals, with a flying Canada Goose on the dollar.
The 1967 dollar was the last circulating SILVER dollar. From 1968 until 1986 similar dollar coins continued to be struck for circulation, but of nickel with no silver content.
The value would only be determinable with a picture of the coin itself. One is selling on Alberta Coins for about $12 but this is in Prooflike condition.
