1974 Canada $1 Winnipeg Centennial Silver Dollar — Specimen, Cased with Box

The 1974 silver dollar marking the centennial of the City of Winnipeg, dual-dated 1874–1974. The reverse is built around a large "100", with the zeros framing scenes of the city.

Each sits in the Royal Canadian Mint's black display holder and leatherette case. We have four: two still with their original white RCM outer box and two in the case only. Pick the one you want; each option shows its own coin.
