2022 Canada $20 1-oz Silver Black And Gold: Sea Otter Matte Proof
The Yin-Yang Of Otters From Canada
Here’s a coin that’s otter-ly fantastic! It’s a limited-edition, one-year-only release that pays tribute to Canada’s famous Sea Otter. It’s also the third release in Canada’s fabulous and critically acclaimed Black and Gold series of coins that celebrates the balance of nature. And what a balance! The two otters depicted on this coin are a North American representation of the Chinese Yin and Yang symbol that represents the idea that two opposite characteristics can actually exist in harmony and complement each other.
Nature’s Balance As Reflected By The Sea Otter
Yellow gold and matte-finish black rhodium plating divide this coin’s design into two opposing but complementary elements—providing an inspiring representation of a pair of industrious, yet playful Sea Otters, a Canadian species that was nearly hunted to extinction, but is now mounting a comeback after its reintroduction to the coast of British Columbia. This beautiful two-tone design from the Royal Canadian Mint is all about balance in the form of the sea otter. This adorable creature works hard every day to feed itself on a diet consisting of sea urchins. This appetite keeps the sea urchin populations in check, which in turn, helps restore and protect the kelp forests that are a critical habitat for hundreds of species.
Low Limited Mintage Will Not Be Available For Long
