The Wild Canada Series is a six-coin release from the Royal Canadian Mint that relives the glory of the Canadian Wildlife Series. With each of the six coins released, two per year, the RCM brings back the creatures depicted in the Canadian Wildlife Series. Each animal reappears in the Wild Canada Series in the order it appeared in the original, this time with a small privy mark on the nation’s official silver coins: the Canadian Silver Maple Leaf.
Each 2017 Cougar Privy Canadian Silver Maple Leaf coin listed today is a reverse proof product. Coins with this finish have a clear, mirrored finish on the design set and a background field that is strong and frosted.
The reverse of each 2017 Cougar Privy Canadian Silver Maple Leaf bears the traditional sugar maple leaf design for the bullion series, complete with a cougar privy mark in the lower-left area of the design field.
On the obverse of all Canadian Silver Maple Leaf coins you’ll find the right-profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty’s portrait appears on the obverse of all Canadian coinage, and this particular design comes from Susanna Blunt.
