The polar bear is one of the world’s largest bear species. It is also the northernmost species of bear in the world, with its native range consisting of the Arctic Circle and the Arctic Ocean. This includes the surrounding seas and land masses that abut the Arctic Circle. Today’s polar bear is the largest extant bear species and is also the largest living land carnivore.

Queen Elizabeth II features on the obverse of 2019 Canadian Polar Bear Silver Coins. This effigy of the Queen is the fourth-generation design for the Royal Canadian Mint and national coinage in Canada. It was created in 2003 by Susanna Blunt. Ms. Blunt is just the second Canadian artist to ever create a monarch effigy for Canadian coinage.

A polar bear is shown in the reverse design of the 2019 1/2 oz Polar Bear Silver Coin. The design element featured this year is a mirror reflection of the 2018 design, flipping the polar bear from the left side of the field to the right side of the field. The polar bear is shown at the edge of an ice shelf with the frigid waters of the Arctic Ocean in the background coming through cracks in the ice coverage.

Founded in 1908, the Royal Canadian Mint is the sovereign mint of Canada. It operates the Ottawa Mint branch for the production of commemorative and bullion coinage, while using the Winnipeg Mint to produce circulation currency.
