Historical Background:
In 1967–1968, Canada transitioned its coinage from 80% silver to 50% silver, and soon after to nickel-based compositions. These short-lived 50% silver coins were issued during Canada’s centennial celebrations and are now sought by both stackers and collectors for their silver content and historical context.
