2016 Canada $1 Library of Parliament - Renewed Silver Dollar - Fine silver Coin (TAX Exempt) 153701

This selectively gold-plated 99.99% pure silver dollar is the second in the Royal Canadian Mint's series celebrating historic proof dollar designs. This release features the design from Canada's 1976 silver proof dollar commemorating the Library of Parliament's centennial. This 99.99% pure silver 1-dollar coin has a diameter of 50 millimetres and a nominal metal weight of 2 ounces. Its reverse features Walter Ott's image of the Library of Parliament from the 1976 silver proof dollar. The design presents the outside of the Library of Parliament in fine architectural detail, highlighting the building's buttresses, ornate windows, three-tiered domed roof, and other gothic details. The building and the coin's outer edge are plated in 99.99% pure gold. The reverse is engraved with the words "CANADA" and "DOLLAR" and the dates "1876-2016." The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Arnold Machin from the original 1976 commemorative silver dollar. The Queen's crown and mantle are plated in 99.99% pure gold.
