Note that each borosilicate element is different, and your coin will be unique, and yours will likely be different from the images. Each one is amazing, and it will be fun to discover your own variation of The Universe. We have included images of two different variations, which also vary depending on the light and angle. Mintage is limited to 8,500 coins. Every coin has its own unique swirl and each one is captured in a globule of borosilicate glass that has been handcrafted and applied to the coin. The glass was also given added luminescence to capture the faint glow of the galaxy. Re-creating the forested setting of the Observatoire du Mont-Mégantic beneath a clear, star-filled sky, the round, crystal-clear qualities of the glass are similar to peering through a telescope lens, and its luminescence further enhances the viewer’s experience of gazing into the galaxy.

2016′The Universe #2′ Proof $20 Fine Silver Coin (17508) OOAK

2016'The Universe #2' Proof $20 Fine Silver Coin (17508) OOAK

Canadian amateur astronomers using the Burke-Gaffney Observatory made a remarkable discovery in 1995 when they identified a supernova in a galaxy about 70 million light years away-the first such discovery made from within Canada. Such a powerful and colourful explosion is a rare celestial event, as the dying star expires in a burst of bright light and expelled energy; it is a truly breathtaking sight to behold, one of great ethereal beauty in a universe that still holds so many secrets! The engraved reverse by Canadian artist Joel Kimmel re-creates the dome of the Burke-Gaffney Observatory located at Saint Mary’s University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, where a student looks through the observatory’s telescope. Against the softly coloured glow of a clear, star-filled night sky, a unique glass insert captures the otherworldly beauty of a supernova crafted by borosilicate artist Loïc Beaumont-Tremblay. The crystal-clear globule of boro glass contains an opal that represents the dying star, which is meticulously positioned over a darkly coloured background and surrounded by wisps of swirled glass and glow-in-the-dark colours. There is a remarkably luminous quality to the insert that conveys this stellar explosion of light and energy, which could easily outshine the glow of its own galaxy-even if only temporarily. An unforgettable combination of detailed engraving and vibrant colour, with a handcrafted borosilicate glass insert combined with glow-in-the-dark glass that makes each coin truly unique! Added luminescence within the glass captures the lights and colours associated with a supernova-a stunning effect that also adds a shine to the reverse’s star-filled sky. An outstanding keepsake for stargazers, astronomers, outdoor enthusiasts and anyone who has ever marvelled at the beautiful mysteries of the universe. A celebration of the Burke-Gaffney Observatory’s distinction as one in a select group of observatories to have discovered a supernova, which is a source of pride for the passionate stargazers of Atlantic Canada. With its innovative features, its beautifully rendered artistic design and a limited mintage of only 8,500 coins worldwide, this coin is sure to be sought after. Composition 99.99% pure silver. Weight (g) 31.39. Finish Proof, color and borosilicate glass. Artist Joel Kimmel and Loïc Beaumont-Tremblay. Finished size 88 mm x 88 mm. LAUNCH DATE: November 3, 2015.
