Today's theme is beautiful birds minted on Silver... I was quite torn on which to pick so I ended up picking ...4 coins - and it could have been 8 or 10 if I had more time. Anyway, let's see what we've

The Canadian Mint has produced some great coins these last few years, and I just got two new 2016 pieces (the Cougar and the Superman's S symbol) which I will be featuring, along with a 2015 (owl) and
