Design: The coin showcases an underwater scene that includes a number of the marine species found in the waters of Canada's West Coast. The image presents the underwater scene as viewed from a deep water reef, looking up toward the turquoise waters of the surface. The brightly coloured marine life includes a large Atolla jellyfish, several yelloweye rockfish, and a highfin dragonfish swimming around soft and hard corals with other vertebrate and invertebrate organisms along the sea floor. The beautiful scene takes on an entirely new life when illuminated with a black light. Under a black light, the rocky background fades to darkness and the bioluminescence of many of the species is revealed, glowing in blues, greens, and pinks on your coin.

Packaging: The coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Maroon clamshell case. It is protected by a custom box. Black light not included.
