The Design:

Each coin is selectively plated with yellow gold: all but the animal is plated on the reverse, while the rim and effigy are plated on the obverse. The elk is too large to fit onto your coin’s reverse, where the close-up extends beyond the framed centre portion.

This helps blur the boundary between humans and the natural world, and brings you closer to this famous antlered species. The three-coin Animal Portraits series zooms in on some of Canada’s most magnificent wildlife species, captured in an unguarded moment and in a natural setting. Each portrait is rendered in a classic style, complete with realistic engraved details.
