Canada has been producing five-cent coins since 1858, and they have undergone several design and composition changes over the years, making them popular among collectors. The first five-cent coin featured a wreath on the reverse side, but this was changed to a beaver in 1937. The obverse side has also featured different images of Queen Elizabeth II over the years. The composition has changed several times as well, with coins made of silver, nickel, and copper. Collectors may choose to collect by year, design, or composition, and the value of the coins can vary depending on their rarity and condition. Overall, Canada silver five cents are a fascinating item for collectors to explore.
