Reverse description The full Arms of Canada rendered in high-relief engraving at the centre of the field, featuring a quartered shield supported by a lion rampant to the left and a unicorn to the right, surmounted by a crowned lion atop a helm and mantling. The shield's quarters display the three golden lions of England, the red lion of Scotland, the Irish harp, and the French fleurs-de-lis, with a sprig of three maple leaves in base. Flanking the supporters are a Union flag and a fleur-de-lis flag, while a ribbon wreath of English roses, Scottish thistles, French fleurs-de-lis, and Irish shamrocks adorns the base. The legend 'CANADA 2016' arcs above and the denomination '25 DOLLARS' is inscribed below in bold raised lettering.

Additional information

The 2016 date places this issue within the RCM's sustained push into the fine silver collector market, where .9999 purity became a marketing differentiator against the long-established .999 standard. The Royal Canadian Mint was among the first sovereign mints to adopt four-nines silver at scale for numismatic issues, a shift that began in earnest around 2014.
