1977 Canada $1 Silver Jubilee Silver Dollar — Throne of the Senate, Cased

Canada's 1977 silver dollar, struck for the Silver Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II. The reverse shows the Speaker's throne in the Senate chamber; the obverse carries the Arnold Machin effigy encircled by SILVER JUBILEE / JUBILÉ D'ARGENT and the dates 1952–1977.

Each comes in the Royal Canadian Mint's original black leatherette case with red lining and the Canadian coat of arms on the lid. We have three: one in its case alone, one with its white RCM outer box, and one with the box and the Mint's original inspection slip.

Historical Significance

1977 marked twenty-five years since Elizabeth II came to the throne. Rather than a portrait or a landscape, the Mint chose the Throne of the Senate for that year's collector dollar, a design by Raymond Lee that was used only for this issue.

Why We Love This One

A one-year design with a real royal connection, still in its original crest case. A classic piece for anyone collecting the cased Canadian silver dollars.
