Start your journey into the wild with Coin #1.
First coin in a new series! The Wildlife Reflections series celebrates Canada's natural beauty through colourful, texturally enhanced depictions of Canadian fauna, beginning with the grizzly bear (Coin #1).
Few mammals are as closely associated with the forested regions of western and northern Canada as the grizzly bear, a true icon of these wild spaces. Ursus arctos is Canada's largest land-based carnivore, and while its strength is indisputable, this coin's reverse inspires awe by showcasing a quiet moment at sunrise à and by presenting the mighty grizzly and its salmon prey as a reflection of the ecosystems they inhabit.
First in a series of contemplative portraits.
Special features
Coin #1 of 3. The three-coin Wildlife Reflections series celebrates Canada's natural beauty through serene scenes set in the Canadian wilderness. Each portrait captures the majesty of both the species and the space it inhabits.
Visually captivating. On the coin's reverse, a selective application of colour produces a captivating scene that takes you into the wild. Those vibrant hues are the colours of nature, allowing you to experience the unspoiled beauty of the Canadian wilderness.
Texturally enhanced. Take a closer look at the grizzly bear and its reflection-a multi-texture visual effect mimics the look of the bear's fur and adds a realistic shimmer to the surface of the water.
Limited mintage. Crafted in 99.99% pure silver, your coin has a limited mintage of 7,500. A stunning addition to any nature-, wildlife- or Canadiana-themed collection!
