This coin is historic in two ways: 1) it is Canada's first silver dollar minted for circulation and 2) it is the first commemorative coin minted by the Dominion of Canada. Five more 'for circulation' commemorative silver dollars were minted. They are the: ~ 1939 Royal Visit Commemorative Dollar ~ 1949 Newfoundland Commemorative Dollar ~ 1958 British Columbia Commemorative Dollar ~ 1964 Confederation Meetings Commemorative Dollar ~ 1967 Confederation Centennial Commemorative Dollar. These six commemorative dollars (and all Canadian dollars minted from 1935 through 1967) are 80% silver and 20% copper. In very good condition each will contain .600 troy ounces of silver with well worn dollars containing less.
