Lynx Silver Coin | Silver Bullion Coins
Made in the purest form of silver at four 9s fine silver (.9999) this release of the predator series showcases the Canadian lynx (Lynx canadensis) which can be found the boreal forests that stretch across much of Canada. This wildcat is a skilled hunter that easily adapts to the changing seasons which makes it one of Canada's most beloved iconic species. Earning a reputation as a keeper of secrets, the solitary Canadian lynx has an elusive behavior and nocturnal habits. Slightly larger than the bobcat, the Canadian lynx has a dense silvery-brown coat with a ruffed face and black hair tufts from the tips of the ears. Sightings of Canadian lynx are rare.
