Singing is an integral part of First Nations cultures throughout North America -so integral in fact, that many Aboriginal languages don’t have a word for’music. People sing day or night to thank Mother Earth for all her gifts; to express love; to heal the sick; to ask for a successful hunt; to seek guidance. Renowned Canadian artist Andy Everson has created this coin’s bold and unique representation of a singing moon. The moon lights up the night sky as it sends its melodic voice in all four directions as depicted by the four oblong shapes positioned along its circumference. In response, the stars twinkle and dance, as represented by the dots and round contours between the oblong shapes. Every curve and detail is imbued with the rich artistic traditions of the K’ómoks and Kwakwaka’wakw First Nations in British Columbia. FIRST TIME EVER set featuring three finishes (proof, antique and colour enamel)-an original and captivating showcase of different visual effects to express one theme. Antique patina and colour enamel are painstakingly applied by hand. Each coin is struck in ultra-high relief with extra-deep contours that have been carved into the coin’s surface and can only be achieved through additional strikes and extensive hand-crafting and polishing.

Composition 99.99% pure silver with colour over engraved relief. Weight 94.25 g. Packaging Black clamshell with black beauty box. Artist Caitlin Lindstrom-Milne (reverse), Susanna Blunt (obverse). It isn’t just the landscape that undergoes a colourful transformation each year-some animals do too! Fiery reds, burnt orange and golden yellows-the colours we associate with fall and fall leaves are mostly present in the landscape during spring and summer too, they’re just masked by chlorophyll, a green pigment that is vital for photosynthesis. The red colours are produced in the autumn, in response to bright light and plant sugars in the leaves. As summer turns to fall and sunlight decreases, leaves stop producing chlorophyll, which fades away to reveal other colours caused by various pigments: xanthophyll for yellow, carotenoid for orange, and anthocyanin for red. And once those pigments break down, only tannins remain in the leaves, resulting in a brown colour. Designed by artist Caitlin Lindstrom-Milne, your coin’s reverse features a composite of landscape features from across Canada, framed by the outline of a black maple (Acer nigrum) leaf and backed by Canada geese (Branta canadensis) flying in a V formation-a sign of the changing seasons in Canada. The four-season view begins with a spring scene on the left, where a tundra swan (Cygnus columbianus) swims past flowery meadows and mountains under a colourful morning sky. The scene transitions to a bright summer day, as a grizzly bear (Ursus arctos horribilis) catches its next meal. Beneath the migrating geese in the sky, the green foliage turns to red, orange, brown and yellow in the fall view, in which the setting sun casts its glow on the grasslands and the iconic bison (Bison bison). The final view, with its sleepy Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus), captures the tranquil beauty of winter in Canada, while an iceberg adrift in the ocean hints at the eventual return of spring. The obverse features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. The obverse also bears a special marking that includes four pearls symbolizing the four effigies that have graced Canadian coins and the double date of her reign. Canada has so many beautiful places to visit, so it was tough to choose just a few. I narrowed it down to a few places that I would personally love to visit, and I visualised myself standing there, watching animals as they enjoy their natural habitats. The sight of geese flying above in their V formation always serves as a reminder that summer is coming to an end, and that we should make the most of those last few weeks. The coin was centered around the seasons, and migrating geese have always signified the changing of the seasons for me. Alicia Cook Sapene, Product Manager. We are very fortunate to live in a country with boundless natural beauty. I wanted to showcase a breathtaking collage of Canada’s four seasons, with contrasting landscapes and colours filling the shape of a black maple leaf. Caitlin did an amazing job of seamlessly blending together the natural splendour of the seasons! ALICIA COOK SAPENE, PRODUCT MANAGER.
