Description
Multi-frame 3D holography is the innovative technology that brings this beautiful and dynamic fine silver Canada Geese coin to life. The effect is almost magical, simultaneously presenting depth, colour and full motion to the imagery of Canada’s most iconic geese. Watch the smooth transition between wingbeats and the realistic depiction of movement as you tilt the coin in the light. Classic engraving and selective colour complete the coin as a work of art with multiple levels of interest and appeal. The coin is dated 2019 with a $30 denomination and weighs two ounces of pure silver. Adding to its collectability, the mintage is extremely limited to just 2,500. HST/GST exempt.
The Design:
The design by Pierre Leduc takes us into the Canadian wilderness, where mountain peaks and evergreens add a soaring sense of majesty to the engraved lake setting. In the foreground, a selectively coloured Canada goose is depicted just before lift-off. Its black head is thrust forward as it rushes headlong into the direction of its intended flight, with wings spread wide to gain momentum in order to join the others in the sky. The three flying geese are depicted in a multi-frame hologram which re-creates the fluid flight movements that carry them across Canada’s skies. The classic engraving includes the word “CANADA” and the year “2019”.
The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
