Description
Canada: 2025 $20 Dancing Ammolite - Elements pf Nature: Earth Pure Silver Coin
Design:
Enhanced with selective gold plating, the reverse design by Canadian artist Mariya Olshevska is a representation of the Earth element in nature. A spring blossom contained within a bulb-like shape symbolizes nature’s cyclical renewal; as a repeating motif, it forms the petals of a larger flower shape, while the overlapping arrangement of tree branches and roots is representative of steadfast growth. At the centre, a standard grade ammolite that has been ethically sourced from Alberta’s Bearpaw Geological Formation is set in a 3D mount fashioned by Canadian jewellery manufacturer Beverly Hills Jewellers; the gold-plated setting allows the suspended gemstone to “dance” at the slightest movement of the coin base. The obverse features a stylized version of the engraved reverse, as well as the gold-plated effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
