2015 Canada 5-cent The Legacy of the Canadian Nickel - The Two Maple Leaves (#2) Fine Silver Coin (TAX Exempt) 135339

Throughout its history, each of the nickel's transformations provides a glimpse of a young nation that was seeking to define itself, and a Mint that would quickly come into its own. This Legacy of the Canadian Nickel series is a retrospective look at the history of 5-cent coins minted by the Royal Canadian Mint; it continues with the two maple leaves design used from 1922 to 1936 that first earned the 5-cent coin its "nickel" nickname.
