The great horned owl (Bubo virginianus), also known as the tiger owl, is an extremely adaptable bird with a vast range and is the most widely distributed true owl in North, Central and South America.
A variety of bullion coins and bars are available to purchase through select dealers. The retail price of bullion products is based on the international gold, silver and platinum market prices, which vary daily. Bullion coins do not have any fixed mintage unless otherwise stated.
Its primary diet are rabbits and hares, rats, mice and voles, although it freely hunts any animal it can overtake. As Canada's most common bird of prey, the great-horned owl is a symbol of power and agility, with unique features that lend themselves beautifully to this engraved portrait.
