These Pre-Owned 2013 Polar Bear 1.5 oz Silver Bullion Coins are manufactured by the Royal Canadian Mint as part of their Arctic Wildlife series, paired with Susanna Blunt's Canadian coinage portrait of Queen Elizabeth II.
As these coins are pre-owned, they are sold under our special scheme. This means you are only charged VAT on our profit margin, allowing us to offer the coins at a lower price than new silver coins.
