The Royal Canadian Mint has released the first of the two 100 for 100 silver coins for 2014, and the image for the other 100 for 100 coin to be released July, 2014. These are real bargains as collectible coins, since the mint charges $100 for a coin with a face value of $100. Yes, the coin can be spent in Canada for what you pay for it. In fact, in the United States the conversion rate at this time makes the $100 Canadian dollars equivalent to slightly less than $100 in the United States.
These coins will contain 31.6 grams of 0.9999 fine silver each. The first has a splendid image of an eagle flying over the wilderness, the second has a pair big horned sheep engaged in combat.
Mintage is 50,000 for each coin.
Unfortunately, only three can be ordered, and only for Canada and United States households. Others will have to buy on a secondary market.
The 2013 issues both sold out, and the best way of ensuring your coins is to subscribe to the program.
And, the mint charges NO TAXES on these coins. Normally, Canadians pay a tax on purchases but these are apparently exempt!
