2025 Canada 7-Coin Tomb of the Unknown Soldier Fine Silver Proof Set

2025 Canada 7-Coin Tomb of the Unknown Soldier Fine Silver Proof Set

Own a selectively gold-plated salute to Canada’s Unknown Soldier—a set exclusive.

In the heart of this nation’s capital lies the final resting place of an unidentified Canadian soldier from the First World War—one of the more than 120,000 Canadian service members who have lost their lives in the cause of peace over the years. Though we do not know his name, the Unknown Soldier represents all fallen Canadians, as well as the many sides of war: tragedy and sacrifice, honour and victory, but above all, unity in our desire for peace and freedom.

This seven-piece Proof Set contains a selectively gold-plated version of the 2025 Fine Silver Proof Dollar, which marks the 25th anniversary of the completion of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at the National War Memorial in Ottawa, Ontario. A set exclusive, the coin’s reverse is enhanced with yellow gold that highlights the Tomb’s four corner pieces, as well as the outer edge that frames this circular interpretation of one of Canada’s most hallowed monuments.

Remembering when Canada’s Unknown Soldier was brought home.

Features:

• Join us in paying respect to Canada’s Unknown Soldier. The Fine Silver Proof Dollar features a Remembrance theme in 2025, in honour of the 25ᵗʰ anniversary of the completion of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier—a site of memory and mourning—at the National War Memorial in Ottawa.
• Only available as part of this set. This set’s 99.99% pure silver dollar is an enhanced version of the 2025 Fine Silver Proof Dollar—it features the same engraved design, but with touches of elegant yellow-gold plating.
• A close view of the Memorial Crosses. The three Memorial (Silver) Crosses have never been re-created on a coin… until now. Plated here with yellow gold, each one bears the Royal Cypher of either King George V, King George VI or Queen Elizabeth II.

• A deeply meaningful design. From the four base corner pieces to the sword-and-helmet overlay, the coin’s reverse re-creates all the key design elements of the Tomb, while the flowers placed upon it convey Canadians’ deep reverence and respect for this symbol of all sacrifice.
• For the love of the hobby. For the love of history. A must-have for many collectors, the 2025 Fine Silver Proof Dollar carries additional meaning for Canadians who serve and have served this country, for their friends and loved ones, and for historians and history enthusiasts.

Design:

Designed by Canadian artist Jason Bouwman, the Royal Canadian Air Force’s history and aviation fleet are represented by four significant aircraft (from left to right): the De Havilland DH-82C Tiger Moth symbolizes the RCAF’s early years; the McDonnell Douglas CF-188 Hornet represents its fighter fleet; the Lockheed CC-130 Hercules represents its fixed-wing aircraft fleet; and the Boeing Vertol CH-147 Chinook, its helicopter fleet. Three of the aircraft leave a contrail behind that begin to form the RCAF tartan, however, all four aircraft are connected to the Royal Canadian Air Force roundel, with the skyborne maple leaf (centre) representing Canada’s Air Force. The RCAF’s future and its space division are represented by the planets and orbit rings, with the two outermost rings running across the maple leaf to represent the centennial years “1924” and “2024” (and all that has been achieved between these centennial dates); the stars honour the RCAF’s current inspirational motto, Sic Itur ad Astra (“Such is the pathway to the stars”). At the bottom, the flaming parrot tulip (representing “Rescue”) is one of four tulip bulb types specially selected to commemorate the RCAF’s Centennial in gardens across Canada and at the Canadian Tulip Festival in 2024. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
