Awesome. Ethereal. Legendary.
That is the magic of the northern lights, and if you’ve ever experienced them firsthand, you know this incredible phenomenon is really beyond words; shimmering waves of light that can leave you breathless. And if you’ve never seen the northern lights, the captivating colours on this pure silver hologram coin might just inspire you to venture north to watch them “live.”
Out there, standing in the dark, Earth’s great lightshow may take on a whole new dimension if the shimmering ribbons of light are accompanied by the sound of howling wolves. It’s one of the most hauntingly beautiful experiences that the wilderness has to offer; a spectacle so mystifying that generations of sky gazers, adventurers and nature lovers have ventured into the darkness, and long pondered if wolves do indeed howl at the light.
At night, in the dead of winter, light and sound travel much farther, aided by the clear, crisp air. If there’s more light, wolves can also be more active; and as their pack disperses in search of food, they will be calling to each other. Their howls will be amplified by the clear, crisp air, just like the northern lights; and the result for the lucky viewer is a hauntingly beautiful symphony of colour and sound.

My First Hologram Purchase

As a collector, I found the hologram effects to be a bit lacking. I was expecting more from such a pricey coin. Other than that, the overall representation of the howling wolf and the Northern Lights is very eye-catching.

The holographic effect is stunning. I was not sure, if I should buy it, but now I am glad I did. Just in time as it turns out. 98% are sold. Got number 3500-something. I cannot understand why some complain about the poor holographic effect. My coin is flamboyant under natural and artificial light. Maybe there is some spread during minting. The value and quality of this coin is (to me) much higher than that of any colored one. I hope that it will not tarnish for a long time, because I fear that the oxidation will destroy the effect. The only con: poor artistic image of the wolf. The front legs seem out of proportion (too thin).

After having read other comments about not being able to see the colors & knowing that it's probably just how it was being held I took a chance and bought this coin.Turns out I was correct.It DOES matter what type of light you use but under my living room light which have a yellow glow I only need to turn the coin a certain way for the colors to show. It's not in-your-face color as some may have liked it to be. It's more subtle but you can see various colors which come alive as you turn the coin. Love the wolf/northern lights theme. Comes in plastic encasement presented in a a nice little hinged box with cert.of authenticity. Possibly will give this as gift to a nephew.
