About the Design:
Your coin uses lenticular technology to masterful effect, recreating an eerie encounter on a dark night. The glow of a hand-held lantern providesthe only light for one anxious young man, who is making his way through the marshes near Dobbin'sGardens. The first image finds the young man nervously looking over his shoulder, as behind him, an ethereal female figure dressed in white appears to hover over him. Tilting the coin to the other side reveals a frightening transformation: the ghost'syouthful appearance has suddenly aged while the facial features and hands are twisted in a terrifyingmanner! The young man's expression is one of sheer terror as both he and the ghost look out from the coin and directly at the viewer. Framing the reverse is an outer rim in which the word "CANADA" the face value "25 CENTS" and the year "2016" are engraved.
