Popular images of the wolf will show it on the prowl with its piercing gaze focused on the viewer, or else howling at a full moon; in reality, the wolf is a social creature that would much rather keep its distance from humans. This is what makes our third. Coin so unique: it’s a close view of a wolf at rest, its eyes passively observing its surroundings and its forepaws casually extended outside the framed centre portion to suggest a relaxed state during this rare, unguarded moment. 99.99% pure silver with selective black rhodium plating. Black clamshell and black beauty box. Trevor Tennant (reverse), Steven Rosati (obverse).
