Description
This 2018 $10 fine silver coin celebrates Canadian hockey and family togetherness. Canadian artist John Mantha has captured the child’s excitement as the puck leaves the stick, propelled into the sunset towards the parent standing in net. Will he leave room for her to score? Have her skills surpassed his need to let her win? We all remember what that felt like when we learned to play.
The Design:
The coloured design on the reverse by Canadian artist John Mantha features the team logo of the Edmonton Oilers® above an outdoor scene, where a child is taking shots in a hockey net goaltendered by an adult. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
