From the edge of the Arctic tundra to the Great Lakes, the little brown bat (Myotis lucifugus) owns the night by using echolocation to locate its insect prey. Our Nocturnal by Nature series continues its exploration of a nocturnal Canada, using selective black rhodium plating to set the tone for a night-time encounter with the diminutive flying mammal. Designed by Canadian artist Calder Moore, your coin brings the viewer face-to-face with the little brown bat. Rhodium plating represents the dark night sky that fills most of the field-save for the full moon that is faithfully engraved at the centre. The enhanced shine of the coin’s silver surface mimics the effect of lunar luminosity in this nocturnal setting, where a little brown bat suddenly makes its presence known overhead. The rhodium-plated hunter appears like a shadowy figure in the night thanks to a matte finish. And with moonlight spilling down across its back and outstretched wings, the bat’s engraved features are faintly visible. Royal Canadian Mint (RCM). 999 with Rhodium Plating. 31.39 g (1 troy oz). Maroon Clamshell Case, Black Outer Sleeve, Mint Capsule, COA. # Nocturnal, Nature, Little, Brown, Bat, Moon, Silver, Proof, Rhodium, Coin, Canada, RCM. Original box and COA from RCM. The coin has beautifully and evenly golden toning on the rhodium area. This makes it uniquely different than the other instances. Please check the pics carefully, that will be the exact item you will receive. I also share my thoughts about coin collecting here.
