You won’t be able to take your eyes off these “extra” high relief, pure silver coins! INNOVATIVE WORLD FIRST COINING TECHNOLOGY! EHR is defined by an impressive relief that reaches to around 6 millimeters on a coin of only 36 millimeters in diameter and 1 oz. Ultra-High Relief coins barely reach 2 mm of height and standard relief coins remain almost flat in comparison. The highest quality proof finish combined with the EHR technique gives it an unequaled brilliance and sharpness, making it a world first coin of its kind. A lightly frosted background accentuates the sparkle of the central main design, giving its already dazzling subject even more emphasis. On the obverse, multiple light-relief facets provide similar luminous, reflective effect. The relief is so extreme and pronounced that the modeling and tooling work had to be approached in an unorthodox manner. The engravers had to adapt their normal coin modeling procedures, CNC machining strategies and tool polishing methods to accommodate such an extreme relief. The innovative EHR technology transforms the imprint into an actual model. AN ODE TO NATURE! Canada is known for its vast and abundant nature, often protected and well preserved.

Multifaceted Animal Family: Bald Eagles. Whether soaring in solitude or surveying from atop the tallest tree, the bald eagle is celebrated as a sharp-eyed symbol of strength. But the regal raptor can be surprisingly tender-it provides nourishment and models behaviours for its young to ensure that the next generation survives and thrives. This is a side of the bald eagle that often goes unseen, and it is represented on the reverse of this 2 oz. 99.99% fine silver coin, where multifaceted engraving adds dimension to the eagle and eaglets, resulting in a new and visually striking portrait that shows this species from a whole new angle. Enjoy a unique view! Features two elements that are seldom seen: multifaceted engraving on a 2 oz. Coin, and a glimpse of a bald eagle family. The reverse design by Canadian artist Steve Hepburn offers a rare glimpse of a bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) family. The obverse features a polygon pattern and the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. Bald eagles build the largest nests-these can average about 1 metre tall, though larger nests have been reported. It’s not clear whether the male or female selects the site, but they tend to nest in tall trees that provide them with a commanding view and easy flight access. Eaglets hatch after a 35-day incubation period and remain in the nest for 10-12 weeks. During the first weeks, the parents will shield the young from the elements and carry food back to the nest. Young eagles develop their flight and hunting skills at their own pace, and they’re largely independent after the second month. See the animal world from a different angle with this Multifaceted Animal Family coin. The perfect fusion of modern engraving and classic art, its reverse design reveals a more tender side of an iconic species that is typically portrayed as a symbol of strength. This stunning 2 oz. Coin features multifaceted engraving, an innovative approach to minting dimensional art. On the coin’s reverse, both the eagle and the eaglets are composed of multiple facets that elevate the art by reflecting light from various angles. The coin is crafted in 2 oz. Of 99.99% pure silver and features a 50 mm diameter-an uncommon size, but one that provides plenty of space for the unique artistry that makes this an unforgettable addition to any collection. A mix of finishes! With a uniformly brilliant finish, many of the portrait’s finer details would get lost in the mix; so the Royal Canadian Mint approached this family portrait by using multiple finishes that help convey depth-from the frosted nest in the foreground to the frosted landscape in the background, and the brilliant facets of the eagles. On your coin’s obverse, an array of laser-engraved polygon shapes-a nod to the reverse-form a dynamic pattern behind the effigy. Limited to just 4,500 coins worldwide. Coin comes encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell with a black beauty box. THIS ITEM IS GST / HST EXEMPT. Citadel Coins Halifax, Nova Scotia Official Royal Canadian Mint Distributor.

The Bald Eagle symbolizes strength, beauty and power, but it is also synonymous with characteristics like loyalty, wisdom and courage. This design uses a unique angle, from high up in the tree canopy, to show the magnificent eagle returning to her three eaglets and swooping down with outstretched wings, which showcases the beauty and structure of the feathers. The young birds are completely reliant on the skill and nurturing care of their parents for the first few months of life. Steve Hepburn, Artist.

ENDANGERED ANIMAL CUTOUT: WHOOPING CRANE. The photogenic whooping crane (Grus americana) is North America’s tallest bird. It’s also one of our rarest avian friends and the focus of intensive conservation efforts over the last few decades. We continue our exploration of Canada’s at-risk species with this second coin in a series, featuring a uniquely shaped cutout that delivers a powerful message about the plight of this endangered species. The reverse design by Canadian artist Trevor Tennant whisks the viewer to the northern boreal plains-specifically the remote wetlands near the border of Alberta and the Northwest Territories. Detailed engraving and multiple finishes recreate the mighty forests that surround the whooping crane’s natural nesting grounds, where it builds its nest in the low vegetation that lines the shallow water. Skilfully carved to ensure a smooth edge, the crane-shaped cut-out re-creates the large bird’s unmistakable silhouette, which stands as a tribute to this great conservation icon. But the eye-catching element also delivers a powerful message; it’s a re-imagining of the landscape without its long-endangered summer resident. The reverse includes the word “CANADA”, the face value “30 DOLLARS” and the year “2017″. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
