Experience the quiet strength of Canada’s wilderness with the 2025 Animal Portraits: Grey Wolf fine silver coin. Struck in 1 oz. of 99.99% pure silver, this proof-finish collectible captures a rare, unguarded moment — a resting wolf with eyes calmly observing its surroundings.
Unlike the usual depictions of wolves mid-hunt or howling under the moon, this design by artist W. Tye portrays serenity and intelligence, the wolf’s forepaws extending gently beyond the frame for a lifelike, three-dimensional effect.
Each coin is expertly crafted by the Royal Canadian Mint, celebrating one of Canada’s most iconic and social creatures through fine detail and luminous artistry.
