Design:
The egg-shaped reverse design by Canadian artist Ann C. Morash weaves together patterns and symbols that capture the artistry of a Ukrainian Easter egg. Positioned within four triangular segments are golden blades of wheat, which convey best wishes for harvest and the soul of the clan. Beneath this overlay, the fieldis filled with the geometric figures that represent the sun and stars, to symbolize life, fortune and growth. These are framed by bands of waves that celebrate water as a life-sustaining element and harmony, which are in turn framed by evergreen boughs positioned along the edge, to symbolize eternal healthand youth.
Your coin is beautifully enhanced by the meticulous application of colours that each carry deeper meaning: yellow represents light and purity; redis the colour of joy and folklore; green is associated with fertility, health and spring, which bringshope and renewal; and black suggests the darkest time before dawn, and the idea of constancy and eternity.
Packaging:
Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with a black beauty box.
