1975 Canada $1 Calgary Centennial Silver Dollar — Specimen, Cased

The 1975 silver dollar marking the centennial of Calgary, dual-dated 1875–1975. The reverse shows a cowboy riding a bucking bronco, a nod to the city's ranching roots and the Stampede.

It sits in the Royal Canadian Mint's black display holder inside the original leatherette case, with "1875 Calgary 1975" and the city crest printed inside the lid.

Why We Love This One

A bucking bronco on a silver dollar is pure Alberta. A fun one for any Stampede fan, still in its printed Calgary case.
