Canada: 2013 $20 Franz Johnston, The Guardian of the Gorge Silver Coin

Mintage: 7000

Composition: 99% silver

Finish: proof

Weight(grams): 31.39

Design: The coin features an adaptation of Franz Johnston’s painting of "The Guardian of the Gorge." In this detail of the painting, we see massive outcroppings of granite acting as guard and gateway to a vast river canyon. The figurative becomes literal as one notices the figure of a crouching man emerge from the rock and at the crest of the cliff (not seen here), the face of the elderly guardian watches over the vast chasm. The outer frame on the reverse side features the words “CANADA” and “FRANZ JOHNSTON” along with the date “2013” and the face value of “20 DOLLARS.”

Packaging: Coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint branded maroon case lined with flock. It is protected by a black sleeve.

Issue Price: $89.95
