1984 Canada Proof Silver Dollar Toronto 150th Anniversary CN Tower + Canoe

Here's a sharp, original-packaged piece that bridges Canada's past and present in one clean design. An Indigenous paddler in a birchbark canoe glides across the water while the modern Toronto skyline rises behind him - the CN Tower standing tall at the center.

Proof strike with frosted devices against mirrored fields, still in its Royal Canadian Mint capsule, red velvet case, and outer box. History: Toronto was incorporated as a city in 1834 with a population of only about 9,000. Over the next 150 years it grew into Canada's largest city and a major North American hub. The 1984 silver dollar marked that sesquicentennial by pairing a traditional canoe scene (echoing the classic Voyageur dollar) with the unmistakable modern skyline of the 1980s.

Exact Mintage: Proof: 571,079. This is the Proof version. Why They Were Made: Issued to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Toronto's incorporation as a city.

The design deliberately links the city's Indigenous and fur-trade roots with its contemporary identity as a vertical, lakeside metropolis. Who Made Them: Reverse designed by Toronto artist D.

Craig (chosen from 60 competition entries). Struck at the Royal Canadian Mint in Ottawa. Proof quality - multiple strikes on polished planchets for the mirror fields and frosted relief. Issued in the standard RCM red-velvet presentation case of the period.

Composition: 50% silver / 50% copper. Coin remains in its original capsule with the full RCM case and outer box. Browse the rest of the shop - plenty more Canadian silver dollars and commemoratives in stock. Solid, complete example of the 1984 Toronto issue.
