The mere glimpse of a snowy owl (Bubo scandiacus) is all it takes to leave a lasting impression-especially when its likeness is captured by an acclaimed artist and rendered in 99.99% pure gold.
Hauntingly beautiful, Snowy Owl on Driftwood by Canadian artist Robert Bateman is brought to life on this ultra_rare gold kilo coin that is a work of art in itself. Instead of colour, different finishes add depth to the engraved portrait of this beloved Arctic raptor, and a gleaming proof finish gives it a magical golden hour glow.
