2024 Canada $30 Multifaceted Animal Family: Timber Wolves - 2 oz Fine Silver Coin

Wolves have traditionally symbolized confidence and courage in the wild, but they also exhibit such traits as dedication and loyalty, as evidenced by their close family and social bonds. These very traits are on display on the third Multifaceted Animal Family coin, where a mother timber wolf watches over her three curious pups, in another tender moment that unfolds in the Canadian wilderness. This close-knit family has been rendered in a bold geometric art style within a classically engraved scene in order to present a more multifaceted view of the species and the boreal forest ecosystem it inhabits.

Design

Multifaceted engraving
Multifaceted engraving is an innovative approach to minting dimensional art. By applying it to a wildlife species whose shape is well known, the highly reflective geometric facets elevate the fauna design and transform it into something truly unique.

Mix of finishes
With a uniformly brilliant finish, many of the portrait’s finer details would get lost in the mix; instead, we’ve opted to use multiple finishes that create a sense of distance and depth.

Obverse pattern
On your coin’s obverse, an array of laser-engraved polygon shapes—a nod to the multifaceted elements on the reverse—form a dynamic pattern behind the effigy.

Packaging

Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a black Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell with a black beauty box.
