Add a burst of colour and charm to your collection with the 2024 American Goldfinch $20 Fine Silver Coin, the fourth release in the Royal Canadian Mint’s beloved Colourful Birds series. This dazzling collector piece celebrates one of Canada’s most vibrant songbirds — the American Goldfinch — whose bright yellow-and-black plumage brings cheerful energy to gardens, forests, and open skies.
Struck in 1 oz of 99.99% pure silver and finished to a brilliant proof standard, the coin captures the serenity of late summer when asters bloom and birdsong fills the countryside. The reverse, designed by Canadian artist Tony Bianco, features a male American Goldfinch perched delicately on purple aster flowers, set against a beautifully engraved background of a rustic barn and wooden fence. The design draws the viewer into the scene, creating a lifelike, immersive composition.
The obverse bears the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, designed by Steven Rosati. Each coin is securely encapsulated, presented in a Royal Canadian Mint–branded clamshell case with a serialized certificate of authenticity. A thoughtful gift for birdwatchers, nature lovers, and collectors alike, the American Goldfinch coin is a true celebration of Canadian wildlife and artistic craftsmanship.
