Description
Celebrate Canadian wildlife and the art of renowned wildlife artist Robert Bateman with this 2023 $30 fine silver coin. Mintage is limited to 5,500 coins. HST/GST exempt.
The Design:
The coin features an intricately engraved image of a bald eagle perched on the moss-covered roots of an uprooted tree. The coin’s luminous silver surface stands in for the original painting’s misty grey sky, where the text “CANADA 2023” appears, while the artist’s signature is engraved beneath a denomination of “30 DOLLARS”.
The obverse features a nature-themed pattern and the posthumous effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt including the dates of reign 1952-2022.
