About
First in the new Prehistoric Animals Series!
Despite the species' extinction 10,000 years ago, the woolly mammoth continues to inspire and intrigue many who identify it with the last glacial period. With this finely detailed gold coin, the Royal Canadian Mint celebrates this impressive mammal that once roamedparts of present-day Canada.
The mammoth fills nearly the entire face of the coin, shown in a striking side profile, sculpted in exceptional detail. Order yours today!
Special features:
• First in the new PrehistoricAnimals Series!
• The pose highlights the imposing stature of the mammoth, and the natural beauty of the tusks which could grow to 4 meters long!
• Image fills almost the entire coin!
• This finely detailed portrayal of the mammoth has been selectivelyfrosted to enhance the soft natural texture of the fur, and accent its smooth, curved tusks.
• Your coin is GST/HST exemptwith a limited worldwide mintage.
Design:
The coin features a scientifically accurate depiction of a woolly mammoth, verified by paleontologists from the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Paleontology. With its head raised, the mammoth's trunk is outstretched between its famously long, curved tusks. The thick, coarsefur that enables it to survive the colder temperatures is shorter here, reflecting the moulting that scientists believe took place in the early summer. Themammoth's extra hump of fat is seen over the shoulders and in the background, the low grasses and gentle sloping hills of the mammoth's habitat stretches past the image's outer rim on both sides.
Packaging:
Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with a black beauty box.
