Aanvullende informatie

Part of the RCM's broader "The Fight" series, this issue captures a moment in the cultural rehabilitation of the plains bison — a species reduced from an estimated 30 to 60 million animals to fewer than 1,000 by the 1880s through commercial hunting and deliberate government policy aimed at undermining Indigenous food sources. Canada's last wild plains bison were gone from the prairies before Confederation was a generation old.

The .9999 fineness places it among the RCM's higher-purity bullion-adjacent issues of the period, though it was sold as a collector coin rather than through bullion channels.
