The Majestic Polar Bear is the first in a new line of Premium Bullion coins in special packaging that are produced with a guaranteed weight and “four nines” (99.99%) purity, and issued in an easy-to-collect format. This uncirculated bullion coin is a beautiful keepsake that has been designed for collectors and precious metal buyers alike, but the First Strikes edition brings an added dimension of exclusivity: it was struck during the first day of production.

Packaged in a premium card holder, each Majestic Polar Bear includes two extraordinary features: a “paw print” privy mark and vivid radial lines, a new sunburst finish that adds amazing visual energy to an already inspiring portrait.

Make room in your collection for an Arctic icon.

• One of the first. The Royal Canadian Mint is recognized worldwide for its strict quality controls, and for producing coins of consistent weight and utmost purity, but First Strikes have the added distinction of being minted on the first day of production—they’re the first of their kind!
• Specially handled during the manufacturing process. It’s never been easier to own or collect precious metals. Each uncirculated Premium Bullion coin comes in an easy-to-collect format; it is produced with a guaranteed weight, specially handled during the manufacturing process and encapsulated into card packaging. While our bullion products are typically purchased from authorized dealers, this Premium Bullion offering is only available for purchase in this stylish card format and can be purchased directly from the Mint, Canada Post and dealers.
• Easy to collect format. Your pure gold coin comes encapsulated and protected in a premium card holder, wrapped in a clear envelope with a tamper-evident seal. Signed by the Mint’s Chief Assayer, the assay certificate is printed on the back of the card, where it certifies the coin’s authenticity and gold purity.
• A limited collectible. Only 1,000 pure gold First Strikes are available to collectors worldwide.
• Also available in silver. The Majestic Polar Bear premium bullion coins, including First Strikes, are available in silver (1 oz.) and gold (1/10 oz.) formats.
• No GST/HST (if applicable)
