I was looking through a box of my coin stuff, and I came across a 1999 Canada platinum coin, 1 oz., $50 denomination, with a polar bear on the reverse. I tried to find information about it on the internet, and there doesn't seem to be any comprehensive online reference for these.
I thought that $50 seemed like a low face value for a 1 oz platinum coin. I think the value is much higher on most 1 oz platinum? I wouldn't know; it's difficult to find any information
Also, are these part of a series? I know they had the wildlife series with 0.1 - 0.25 - 0.5 - 1 oz coins for each year through the 90's, but one list I was able to find showed the 1999 coin as a Musk Ox. I'm pretty sure this is not a Musk Ox
