About
10th issue in this bi-annual series. Continue collecting this beautiful series!
Nunavut means “Our Land” in Inuktitut and the dominant coloursof gold and blue represent the richness of the land, sea and sky. The round shield contains an inukshuk, a stone monument that has guided people and markedimportant places for millennia. To the left is a qulliq; a stone lamp that provides essential light andwarmth and embodies a sense of community. Above is a concave arc of circles representing the unique solar cycle of the Arctic in tribute to the life-givingproperties of the sun. Also prominent is the North Star, an unwavering navigational guide that remains as steadfast today as Nunavut’s elders.

Special features:

• 10th coin in a series!
• Your coin is struck in 14-karat gold and limited to only 500 coins worldwide.
Design:
The Coat of Arms for Nunavut is Canada’s youngest Arms granted to its youngest territory by Governor General Roméo LeBlanc in 1999. It was created by Inuit artist Andrew Qappik in partnership with the Canadian Heraldic Authority and the elders and leaders of Nunavut to create a distinct blend of ancient Inuit symbolism and European heraldic tradition. Resting upon the shield is an iglu which was essential to survival and represents the traditional way of Inuit life and the modern gathering of legislative members. The territory’s status in Confederation is symbolized by the Royal Crown above. Holding the shield are a tuktu (caribou) and quilalugaq tuugaalik (narwhal), important wildlife that sustain the people. The motto is written in Inuktitut, which reads “Nunavut Sanginivut” (Nunavut our strength).
