A proud symbol of the Canadian wilderness, the moose inhabits the boreal forest that stretches from Newfoundland in the east to British Columbia in the west, and north to the Arctic treeline. A male moose’s antlers and imposing size (up to two metres tall at the shoulders) make it a sight to behold as it nobly, and quietly, wades in water – as it does on Coin #3, where the tranquil fall scene taps into the Canadian spirit and captures the undeniable majesty of our wild spaces.
The Design:
Designed by wildlife artist Claude Thivierge, selective colour brings the design to life, while a multi-texture visual effect mimics the look of fur of the moose and adds a realistic shimmer to the surface of the water. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
