You’ve never seen a coin quite like this! The deep waters off Canada’s western shores teem with some of the planet’s most abundant and amazing marine biodiversity. This unique new coin celebrates the otherworldly life that thrives in these mysterious deep water regions, showcasing their bioluminescent beauty on a 99.99% pure silver coin that features specialized backlit technology. Designed by Canadian illustrator Jesse Koreck, your coin features an underwater scene that includes a number of the marine species found in the waters of Canada’s West Coast. The image presents the underwater scene as viewed from a deep water reef, looking up toward the turquoise waters of the surface. The brightly coloured marine life includes a large Atolla jellyfish, several yelloweye rockfish, and a highfin dragonfish swimming around soft and hard corals with other vertebrate and invertebrate organisms along the sea floor. The beautiful scene takes on an entirely new life when illuminated with a black light. Under a black light (NOT INCLUDED), the rocky background fades to darkness and the bioluminescence of many of the species is revealed, glowing in blues, greens, and pinks on your coin. Black light NOT included. THIS ITEM IS GST / HST EXEMPT. Citadel Coins Halifax, Nova Scotia Official Royal Canadian Mint Distributor.
