2021 Silver Shield 1 oz .999 fine silver “Cannabis” – SKU #54121

Description

This 2021 1 ozt .999 fine silver coin from Silver Shield features a Cannabis leaf overlaid on top of a Maple leaf. An interesting twist of the beloved Canadian Maple Leaf coins that are highly popular with collectors, this coin was designed as a tribute to the Cannabis plant, a plant used for thousands of years for medicinal, spiritual, and recreational purposes. Silver Shield, with its rich history of designing coins that mock the overreaching arm of governmental powers, has targeted the illegal nature such a useful plant. With the statement “Legliser Nature” added to the coin, it implores that we remove the criminality from using/possessing a piece of nature and taking away from governments any authority to unjustly enforce laws making it illegal. Although many states in the U.S. have legalized cannabis in one way or another (hemp), some still have prohibitions against it.

Obverse: Cannabis Leaf overlaid on top of a Maple Leaf, with “.999 Fine Silver 1oz Legaliser Nature” inscribed.

Reverse: The Silver Shield logo and 2021 date, as well as the weight and purity of the coin.
