Silver Falcon Coin
Soar into the world of high-relief art bullion with the Silver Falcon Coin — the 2016 1.5 troy ounce .9999 fine silver coin issued by the Royal Canadian Mint, featuring a breathtakingly detailed peregrine falcon in mid-flight, wings outstretched, talons ready to strike. Struck in ultra-high relief with mirror-like fields and frosted details, this coin is not just legal tender — it’s a wearable sculpture, a collector’s trophy, and a testament to Canada’s mastery of wildlife-themed numismatics. Encapsulated in original Royal Canadian Mint packaging with Certificate of Authenticity, the Silver Falcon Coin is a limited-edition masterpiece designed for advanced collectors, art investors, and those who believe bullion should inspire awe as much as it secures wealth.
At Metal Bullion, we source every Silver Falcon Coin directly from the mint or its authorized global distributors, guaranteeing pristine condition, original packaging, and full documentation. With demand for high-relief art coins surging — tracked by PCGS and NGC — and silver’s industrial demand accelerating in solar, EV, and 5G technologies — see Silver Institute 2025 Report — this 1.5 oz coin offers a rare convergence of aesthetic grandeur and tangible value. Whether displayed in a private gallery, held as a legacy asset, or gifted as a symbol of precision and power, this coin delivers unmatched presence.

Why the Silver Falcon Coin Is a Numismatic Masterpiece
The Silver Falcon Coin transcends bullion — it’s wearable art. Canada’s Wildlife Series is globally renowned for its hyper-realistic depictions of native fauna, and the 2016 Falcon is among its most dramatic releases. The peregrine falcon — the fastest animal on Earth, capable of 240 mph dives — is captured in stunning, sculptural detail. Unlike flat coins or bars, the ultra-high relief (often exceeding 3mm in depth) creates dramatic shadows and highlights, making the falcon appear to soar above the field. According to Art Bullion Index, ultra-high relief silver coins have appreciated 40–80% within 3–5 years of release, especially those with limited mintage and museum-quality craftsmanship.
Pair this coin with other high-relief art bullion like the Infinity High Relief Silver Coin or the Mongolia Majestic Eagle 1 Kilo Proof to build a “Sky & Spirit” collection. Or gift it alongside a 1 oz Palladium Bar with a note: “Precision meets power.”

- IRA Art Asset: Deposit into your self-directed IRA. Silver is IRS-approved and historically outperforms during inflation. Start your IRA here.
- Educational Display: Mount in a shadow box with a plaque: “Precision, Power, Freedom — Forged in Silver.” Read: “How to Display Themed Bullion”.

How to Display and Preserve Your Silver Falcon Coin
This coin deserves museum-grade care:
- Display: Use an acrylic display case with LED backlighting to highlight the relief’s depth and shadows. Avoid direct sunlight to preserve finish.
- Handling: Always wear cotton gloves. Hold by the edge — never touch the high-relief areas.
- Cleaning: Use a soft silver polishing cloth ONLY on non-relief areas if needed. Do not polish high-relief sections — you’ll destroy the artistic finish.
- Storage: Keep in original box with CoA when not displayed. Add anti-tarnish strips.
- Insurance: Insure as “Art Bullion” via Jewelers Mutual or Chubb.
