2016 Canadian $20 Big Fish Series: Arctic Char 1 oz Fine Silver Coloured Coin
Canadian Salmonids, Big Fish Coin Series
The Arctic char's bold and fighting spirit is legendary among anglers. A long-standing food source among the Aboriginal peoples, it is typically silver-white in colour, but when it's spawning it turns to vibrant shades of orange, red and gold—a breathtaking show that is revealed to full effect on this coin.
Ideal for someone who loves fishing!
Features
Final coin in an unforgettable 3-coin series that celebrates Canada's indigenous big fish species, which are a revered part of our nation's rich biodiversity!
Selective colour and finishing technology beautifully enhance this engraved portrait of the sockeye salmon as it completes its upstream migration.
LARGER THAN YOUR AVERAGE 1 OZ. SILVER COIN! The coin's 40-mm size offers a bigger canvas that allows a more detailed portrait of the mighty sockeye salmon in a natural setting, in one of the many lakes found in Canada's Pacific Coast region.
99.99% PURE SILVER COIN!
GST/HST exempt with a limited mintage worldwide.
Design
Designed by Canadian artist Curtis Atwater, your coin features the Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) towards the end of its migratory journey, from the saline waters along the Arctic coastline to the freshwater rivers and lakes of Northern Canada. The engraved background offers an underwater view of this distinctive species as two Arctic char hover just beneath the water's surface, while a third in the foreground remains close to the pebble and gravel-lined riverbed. Selective colour brings to life the spotted, bright orange tint of this spawning adult, while intricate engraving offers a detailed view of its fins and upwardly protruding lower jaw.
Packaging
Coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with a black beauty box and Certificate of Authenticity.
