Selective gold plating adds to your SQUARE-shaped celebration of the True North! Order today!
History and culture run deep in Northern Canada, where the ice-carved landscape is beautiful, fearsome and endlessly fascinating! The square-shaped reverse brings together a mix of finely engraved and selectively gold-plated emblems that embody the spirit of the Canadian Arctic—from the iconic caribou to the compass rose that symbolizes a history of exploration, and the inunnguaq, a form of inukshuk, that has traditionally guided the way.
An ideal coin for someone who enjoys a beautiful take on the Canadian North.
Design:
A familiar feature of navigational charts, a compass rose lies at the centre of the Arctic-themed reverse by Maurade Baynton, where it represents a history of exploration in Canada's North. Two finely engraved icons of the Arctic surround the compass rose: the caribou and the inunnguaq, a form of inuksuk. Seen in profile, the antlered icon of the northern wilderness is a fundamental part of the traditional way of life in many communities, where the caribou has sustained life for millennia. Selective gold plating frames the reverse and also places special emphasis on the inuksuk, a stone landmark that has traditionally carried spiritual and practical meaning for the Inuit. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
