A Stunning Portrait Of Canada’s Amazing Polar Bear

 

Did you know that Canada is home to approximately 16,000 of the world’s estimated 20,000-to-25,000 polar bears that live in the wild? Well, you can add to that total thanks to the Royal Canadian Mint’s first release in its new Animal Portraits series that pays tribute to this endangered animal.

 

The Largest Of Canada’s Four Resident Bear Species

 

The Animal Portraits series will feature some of Canada’s most magnificent wildlife species, captured in an unguarded moment and in a natural setting. This coin shows a lumbering Polar Bear, the largest of Canada’s four resident bear species. This design reveals a rare close encounter with this revered Arctic emblem, unguarded and seemingly unaware of the viewer’s presence, as it casually steps out of the framed center portion.

 

Not only were these legal-tender $20 coins struck in an ounce of highly pure 99.99% silver, but they’ve been selectively plated in vibrant yellow gold. The selective yellow gold gilting leaves the polar bear in shimmering silver on the reverse and King Charles III plated in yellow gold on the obverse. The contrast is even more breathtaking thanks to the coin’s gorgeous proof finish, the result of using hand-selected planchets, polished dies, and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields!
