The snowy owl is one of the most majestic creatures found on the North American continent. Already a stealthy hunter by association with the owl species, the snowy owl has a brilliant white coat of feathers that helps it adapt to the harsh climates of the polar regions of Canada, all while blending in perfectly as it stalks prey. Today, the 2017 1 oz Proof Silver Canadian Landscape Illusion: Snowy Owl Coin is available to you online at Silver.com.

Coin Highlights:

  • Ships to you in a maroon clamshell with black beauty box.

From the typical owl family species, the snowy owl is a native species to the Arctic regions of both North America and Eurasia. Males in the species are almost entirely white in their feathers, while females tend to have flecks of black in their plumage. Snowy owls were first cataloged by Linnaeus in his 1758 10th edition of Systema Naturae.

The coin design for this 2017 1 oz Proof Silver Canadian Landscape Illusion Snowy Owl coin appears to show, at first glance, the high, rugged cliffs on a massive mountain peak. Take a closer look at the mountain peak in question though, and you’ll notice something entirely different in the design.

On the reverse of the 2017 1 oz Proof Silver Canadian Landscape Illusion Snowy Owl coin is the colorized design of a snowy mountain landscape in the Canadian Rockies. Look closer at the mountain peak, with its breaks in the snow cover and treeline of pines, and you’ll notice the mountain peak doubles as a snow owl crouched with its wings spread wide.

The obverse of the Proof Silver Canadian Landscape Illusion Snowy Owl coin includes the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty appears on the obverse of all Canadian coinage, numismatic and circulation alike, and this particular design is from Susanna Blunt in 2003.

Each of the Landscape Illusions silver coins from the Royal Canadian Mint combines the remarkable wildlife species of Canada into artwork that appears to also showcase the stunning vistas and beautiful views found throughout the country.

The Royal Canadian Mint is the official sovereign mint of the nation of Canada, producing both gold and silver bullion products for the nation. It consists of two minting facilities: the original location in Ottawa and a newer location in Winnipeg.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com. For this reason, we also don't process credit/debit card orders over the phone, as it is the least secure way to process those transactions.

In addition, all VISA and MasterCard orders undergo an additional step of user authentication - the respective Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode programs. Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Finally, the data we do retain in our system, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and order history, is never shared with or sold to any unrelated third-parties. Please review our Privacy Policy for full details on our data security measures.

Please note, the Silver.com website accepts orders 24/7/365, so you can always lock in live product prices and make purchases outside of business hours.

Do you charge sales tax?

We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. You can review your states sales tax policy here: https://www.silver.com/taxes. You should always consult with a tax adviser for specific advice in your area.

Where does your spot price come from?

We use a live, up-to-the-second spot price feed supplied by Xignite.com, a worldwide leader in the data supply market.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship to addresses in the United States, including APOs.
