Canada: 2017 $20 Glistening North: Arctic Wolf - Pure Silver Coin

Finish: Proof

Weight: 31.39

Mintage: 5000

Design: Designed by Canadian artist Maurade Baynton, your coin artfully combines detailed engraving, selective colour and a diamond glitter element to capture a serene moment in Northern Canada. Lying on the frozen ground, an arctic wolf takes a moment to rest its weary head next to its forepaws. This northern hunter is engraved in magnificent detail to capture the uniqueness of its features—including the long fur that keeps it insulated against winter's chill. Behind the wolf, engraving adds texture to the trees that surround it, while the application of soft colours re-create the hues and shadows of fading daylight. While the landscape slumbers beneath a thick blanket of snow, a sealed layer of fine diamond particles re-creates the effect of snow sparkle on this enchanting winter day in the North.

Packaging: The coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with a black beauty box.
