2019 Canadian $20 Vegreville Pysanka 1 oz Fine Silver Egg-shaped Coloured Coin
At the eastern edge of Vegrevillle, Alberta, stands an egg-shaped symbol of harmony. The 2,300-kilogram pysanka is a centennial monument to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. It is a wonder of computer-aided design, complete with colourful patterns that are a celebration of peace, history and tradition. Our fourth pysanka coin is an easy-to-hold version of Vegreville’s world-famous Ukrainian Easter egg. On the reverse, every symbol, colour and detail has a special meaning — even the appearance of tiles that turned a cultural expression into a geometric marvel.
Your coin celebrates the giant Pysanka statue from Vegreville, Alberta!
Features

Design
This 2019 issued coin is a small-scale reproduction of the Vegreville Pysanka. Fine engraving mimics the tiled look of the geometric design, which includes five key elements: a radiating sunburst to symbolize growth, fortune and eternal life; triangles that signify a trinity and unity; a straight band to represent eternity; six-pointed stars that are a representation of windmills, a symbol of a good harvest; and finally, a wolf tooth pattern for security, as a tribute to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. The colours are also symbolic, with gold and silver representing fortune while bronze signifies the land that sustained Vegreville’s early population and their descendants.
Packaging
2019 Canadian $20 Vegreville Pysanka 1 oz Fine Silver Egg-shaped Coloured Coin comes encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with a black beauty box and serialized Certificate of Authenticity.
