Design:
Designed by Canadian artist Joel Kimmel, your coin revisits amagical, light-hearted moment as two children engage in the winter tradition of creating snow angels! There's a timeless feel to the vibrantly coloured image, in which an old-fashioned wooden tobogganon the left conveys the spirit of play that pervades this outdoor setting. Under the watchful eyes ofa snowman in the top right corner, and their caninecompanion in the bottom left corner, two children are lying down on their backs to create angelic silhouettes in the snow. They are all smiles in their brightly coloured winter garb as they swish their outstretched arms up and down while swinging their legs from side to side-an effect that is recreated through the use of motion technology, which seamlessly creates the illusion of continuous movement as the coin is tilted from side to side. The energy is infectious as the family dog joins in by mimicking the children's movements, as the sweep of its tail from one side to the other leaves its own unique imprint in the snow.
