1 oz Silver 2005 (1945) Canadian $5 60th Anniversary Of The End Of World WAR II

This historically significant 1oz .999 silver commemorative marks the 60th anniversary of WWII's end. The reverse design by Tony Bianco features a dove of peace over a battlefield with "1945-2005" dates and bilingual "Remember/Souvenir" inscriptions. The obverse bears the Dora de Pédery-Hunt effigy of Queen Elizabeth II. The coin's selective antiqued finish creates a solemn, vintage appearance appropriate to its theme. With a limited mintage of 25,000, this remains one of the most powerful Canadian commemoratives, notable for both its artistic merit and emotional resonance.
