Canadian 50 for 50 Silver Polar Bear

The Royal Canadian Mint has issued a 50 for 50 fine silver coin, the 2014 Polar Bear.  This is a 0.9999 fine silver coin, and is being released with the limited mintage of 10,000.

This coin joins the successful 20 for 20 and 100 for 100 coin programs.  The coin is being sold by the mint at face vale.

This coin contains 15.87 grams of silver.

The image on this coin is the Polar Bear, a symbol often associated with Canada.

If the other programs are an indication, there should be more issues over time, so why not start with the first one?
