Part of the Royal Canadian Mint's fine silver wildlife series, this issue belongs to a run of collector coins that the RCM produced aggressively throughout the 2010s targeting the natural history market. The Giant Sulphur — Colias alexandra — is a butterfly native to western North American grasslands and alpine meadows. These pieces were sold directly to collectors at a premium and saw essentially no circulation, which makes condition a non-issue rather than a distinction.
