2017 Proof Silver Dollar Our Home and Native Land Canada 150 Special Issue

Since it was first introduced in 1971, the cased proof silver dollar has been the most collectible coin issued by the Royal Canadian Mint, with each featuring a different commemorative of the events and people that contributed to making Canada the country it has become today. This 2017 fine silver proof cased dollar features one of the most significant themes since the series began, marking the 150th anniversary of Confederation.

The reverse design by Canadian artist Jamie Desrochers captures the celebratory spirit of a nation in 2017. Viewed from a unique perspective, the map of Canada has a distinctive dimensional feel to it as the viewer's eye sweeps across the nation. The focal point itself is the large "150" at the centre; superimposed on the map, the "150" is as large as the nature of the celebrations commemorating the 150th anniversary of Confederation. Below it, the words "Canada," "dollar" and commemorative dates "1867–2017" are also engraved in Heritage Canada's official font for the occasion, alongside the Canada 150 logo. Behind it all is Canada's national flag, rendered in laser frosting that gives it an ethereal feel—a fitting way to convey the swelling sense of pride and patriotism that, though unseen, can be found within Canadian hearts during a momentous year.

The national flag is a moving representation of the immense national pride that fills the air as Canadians from coast to coast to coast (represented by the map) come together to celebrate our nation's milestone anniversary.
