Your coin has no GST\/HST!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDesign:\u003cbr\u003eDesigned by Claude Thivierge, your coin combines two differentart styles to capture the majestic beauty and strength of a cultural icon. On Canada's Pacific Coast, the fjord-like coastline basks in the golden glow of sunlight, which spills into the ocean and illuminates the upper depths. The scene is split between our world and the orca's underwater realm, where two pod members are rendered in a low poly art style; in spite of their geometric nature, the precision-engraved polygons are each carefully positioned to re-create the orca's rounded silhouette as it easily moves through the water. A burst of movement comes from the foremost orca, which suddenly rises up above the ocean's surface; this action simultaneously shatters the watery divide and the geometric barrier, as the breaching orca's appearance smoothly transitions from abstract to realism above the water. The word \"CANADA\", the face value \"20 DOLLARS\" and the year \"2018\" are engraved along the rim that frames much of the reverse image. The obversefeatures the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDid you knowÉ\u003cbr\u003eWhile it is prominent in the legends and myths of the Northwest Coast, the orca is found in all three oceans that line Canada's coasts:the eastern Arctic, the North Atlantic and the Pacific.\u003cbr\u003eIt is popular known as a \"killer whale,\" name given by ancient fishermen, who were impressed by its tremendous size and hunting abilities.\u003cbr\u003eOrcas are highly social - they prefer to travel and hunt in tight-knit pods that have their own distinctdialect. Cooperative behaviours are also passed down from one generation to the next, with the entire pod caring for each calf.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"J\u0026M Coins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40785007870027,"sku":"RCM.CA.SV.CN.003053 - BC1845","price":130.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0556\/2872\/6347\/files\/false_76a11494-0013-4ed2-a733-c3704d9498a1.jpg?v=1717053665","url":"https:\/\/jandmcoins.com\/products\/canada-silver-2018-d20-orcas-geometric-fauna-pf-1_023oz_-_9999-bc1845","provider":"J\u0026M Coin \u0026 Jewellery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
