I thought today I would post another of my favorite coins. It is once again smaller than the typical ounce. Smaller even than the 1/2 ounce Lunars that I posted yesterday.
I remember when the Royal Canadian Mint introduced the $20 for $20 coins. I wasn't sure what to think about them when they first came out. I saw that the weight, sitting at right around a quarter of an ounce was lower than I normally would want in a coin...and saw that at the time ordering directly from the website was a three coin limit per household....there went the chance at a full ounce.
When they released the 1/2 ounce Timber Wolf coin in 2006 I was overjoyed. It had a great look and was sporting one of my favorite creations the mighty Canis Lupus. Fast forward to 2013 and the release of the $20 for $20 wolf pieces. I was sold. Household limit please.

Guess its high time I track down a fourth to hit that ounce mark with them.
Also, I have not been as smitten with the other Canadian wolf coins. Do any of you hold any? Are they worth it? I feel as if I am doing one of my animals a disservice in not having them, and silver is silver after all.
Thanks everyone!
We still have some coins from the 1800s. Coins are really nice! Haha
First time ive seen coins with wolves too. :o
