1 oz 2025 The Majestic Polar Bears First Strike Silver Coin | Royal Canadian Mint

First Strikes: The first silver Majestic Polar Bear Premium Bullion coins struck for 2025

The Majestic Polar Bear is a Premium Bullion in Special Packaging product – an investment-grade collectible coin that puts the purest precious metals in your hands – and First Strikes hold the distinction of having been struck on the first day of production.

Continuing the story from the mother-and-cub designs of 2023 and 2024, the 2025 edition finds the cub all grown up and on its own. As a result, the coin’s reverse features just one paw print, a reflection of the bear’s independence and solitary nature.
