Daphne Odjig (1919-2016) was not only one of the most celebrated artists active in Canada in the 20th century, but a pathbreaking advocate for Indigenous art and culture. A self-taught artist, her immense portfolio includes everything from minimalist fine-line sketches to massive paintings blazed with bold colour. In 2025, Daphne Odjig becomes the first First Nations woman artist honoured on a Canadian circulation coin, whose reverse design is expanded on this 99.99% pure silver piece. The larger diameter (38 mm) allows for the inclusion of additional elements from her original work Folk Singer, such as the powerful bird figure not seen on the $2 coin, while selective colour pays homage to Odjig’s bold colour palette and spellbinding art style. A Daphne Odjig original, immortalized in fine silver.
