10 Dollars - Charles III Bull and Bear (Bullion)

The "Bull and Bear" belongs to the RCM's ongoing bullion program that has increasingly targeted thematic collector-investors rather than pure stackers — a market pivot that accelerated sharply after 2015 as generic silver rounds flooded the secondary market and the Mint needed differentiated product to defend margins. Two troy ounces of .9999 fine silver is the defining specification here, placing it outside the standard one-ounce Maple Leaf series and into a tier where the premium over spot is carried by the theme rather than the sovereign guarantee alone.
