"I walked into Bank XXX on XXXX street in Toronto..."

I can't tell you about Canada, but, in America, you don't buy Eagles from the bank, or even the mint, (unless they are proof sets).
Eagles are stamped $50.00. If you go to a bank, or the mint, they will give you face value of the legal tender, to wit, 50 bucks. "Never mind you paid like $450 to a coin dealer; sez rah cheer it is 50 bucks".

Sell small lots to a number of coin dealers and put the checks in the bank slowly or cash 'em in for paper and stick it in a box and add it to your account slowly, or be a good citizen and pay taxes.

If you get metal, keep it yourself; safe deposit box, safe, hole in the ground in the woods. Don't leave it at the source. They may even lease it.
