| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central high-relief rose gold-plated depiction of a beaver crouching on a log partially submerged in water, rendered in the classic design first introduced by G.E. Kruger Gray for Canadian coinage. Two maple leaves flank the beaver in the upper field, one to the left and one to the right, also finished in rose gold plating. The legend 5 CENTS arcs above the central device, while CANADA and the date 2018 are inscribed in the lower field. The engraver's initials K·G appear in the lower left of the field. A beaded border encircles the entire design, and the brilliant proof silver fields contrast dramatically with the rose gold-plated devices. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This oversized five-cent piece belongs to the Royal Canadian Mint's ongoing program of fine silver collector issues that reprise the classic 1937 Emanuel Hahn beaver design — the same design that survived on circulation coinage essentially unchanged for over six decades before the nickel five-cent piece was discontinued in 2013. Hahn was a German-born sculptor who won the design competition for the reverse, and the beaver motif itself was a deliberate nationalist statement by the Coinage Redesign Committee, rejecting imperial British imagery in favor of Canadian fauna.
The .9999 fineness here is notable — four-nines silver was not the mint's standard until relatively recently, and its adoption reflects pressure from the bullion investment market rather than any collector-specific demand.
