2017 Canadian $20 Landscape Illusion: Snowy Owl - 1 oz Fine Silver Coin

 

At first glance, your coin features a winter mountain scene. The viewpoint is from a rocky, snow-covered slope, below mountain peaks that rise in the distance. But on closer examination, a snowy owl emerges from the scene. Its wings found in the steep mountainsides; its head in the mountain's central peak; its talons reflected in highlights on the snow; its feathers defined by spruce trees; and its beak and eye shaped by two crows circling overhead—a pure master of illusion!

A must-have addition to your nature or animal coin display!
