Product Description:
When protecting your portfolio with precious metals, the Silver Polar Bear is a popular choice.
Created in 2013 by the Royal Canadian Mint, the Silver Polar Bear coin was their first 1.5 oz silver bullion coin — which kicked off a popular wildlife series that ran through the 2010s. Struck in 99.99% pure silver, this bullion coin is a great entry point for investors.
The design features Germaine Arnaktauyok’s polar bear prowling across the ice, and on the opposite side, we see Susanna Blunt’s elegant Queen Elizabeth II. You’ll also notice radial lines to signal authenticity.
For investors who value quality and practicality, the Silver Polar Bear could offer market resilience at a great point-of-entry.
More facts:
- The 1.5 oz size offers more silver per coin than the standard 1 ounce size, and unlike limited collector coins, its uncapped mintage improves accessibility.
- Designer Germaine Arnaktauyok was born in Greenland & is of Inuit descent, which adds a layer of cultural depth to her art.
- Canada hosts most of the world’s 25,000 polar bears, who use ice shelves for hunting seals.
Silver has enjoyed a surge due to factors like technology growth and industrial applications.
Pair these factors with the metal’s inflation-fighting history, and you’ve got great reasons to start stacking — or gifting — this classic piece while maneuvering the uncertain markets.
Silver Polar Bear coins are approved for purchase in Precious Metals Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). This means that individuals can use these coins to help secure their retirement savings.

Recently, I purchased precious metal from Preserve Gold. I consider myself fortunate to have been guided by Aaron Crossman and Jerin Wilson during that transaction.
