Designed by Canadian artist Steve Hepburn, your coin offers a beautifully artistic interpretation of a tree of life as a representation of the different aspects of our existence. Spreading out beneath the earth, the gold-plated roots anchor the tree and provide a solid foundation for its trunk, which represents one’s identity and core beliefs. The curled branches that represent growth as an individual strike a golden contrast next to the painted leaves, which represent the fruits of our labour in life. With all of its curved branches and intertwined roots, the complexities of this engraved design necessitate the application of more intricate gold plating than ever seen before. Just above the earth is the engraved word “CANADA” to the left of the tree, while the face value “20 DOLLARS” and the year “2018″ are engraved on the right side. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. Different concepts of the tree of life have appeared in theology, philosophy, biology and mythology. The idea of a “tree of life” or “a sacred tree” is found in many early mythologies. To many, the tree of life represents the connection between all forms of life on Earth, and as a link between heaven and our terrestrial world. The tree of life has been popularized by modern jewellery design, where it symbolizes different notions such as knowledge, wisdom, security and strength, or as a beautiful celebration of life!
