Collectors of the Canadian Dollar are most interested in the dates between 1935 and 1967, as the coins were minted with genuine silver during this period. After 1967, the coins switched to a nickel composition and remained in circulation. However, there are non-circulating commemorative silver versions still offered at higher premiums for the collector market. As for the classic Voyageur design, this was used until 1986. It was then replaced by a Loon bird design, which earned the new Canadian dollars the nickname of “loonie.”

The obverse of Pre-1958 Canada Silver Dollars could contain various Royal portraits.
