About
Features a beautifully coloured niobium insert! 1st in a new series!
An error slipped in the Impression brochure #6. Note that applicable taxes apply to this coin. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Distance and proportion melt away on the great expanse of Arctic ice—and the Inuit woman would disappear into the landscape if it were not for the brownish-grey earth tones of her animal hide parka. Even then, it would take a trained eye to spot the dot ofcontrast against the frigid white that defines theArctic for most of the year.
Your coin is the 1st in a new series featuring contemporary aboriginal art incorporated in a colorful design usingoxidised niobium to diffract light and cause brilliant colours, naturally. Order yours today!
Special features
• Your unique fine silver coin features a niobium metal insert with special coloring that enhances the beauty of this Inuit artist’sdesign.
• Distinct and innovative minting process: the niobium insert is struck into the core of your fine silver coin and then selectively coloured through a unique oxidization process. After oxidation, the niobium diffuses light to create brilliant colours.
• Your coin portrays the unique bond between mother and child engaged in an important Inuit family activity, fishing.
• Limited mintage of 6,500.
Design
Your coin’s reverse design is by Inuit artist Ulaayu Pilurtuut and shows a joyous mother celebrating her latest catch with her baby in her amautik. Rendered in a contemporary Inuit style, it captures the lighthearted spirit and humour commonly associated with this ancient culture.
Packaging
Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded black clamshell case lined witha black flock and protected by a black sleeve.
A thoughtful gift and beautiful addition to any collection featuring Aboriginal art and culture.
