Thanks to its beautifully varied topography, Alberta is arguably one of Canada's most photogenic provinces. Many of the nation's iconic natural regions can be found within its boundaries—whether it's the northern forests of the Canadian Shield, the open grasslands in the south, even the otherworldly hoodoos of the fossil-rich badlands. Most famous of all are the Rocky Mountains that rise up in the west, where some of the world's most photographed landscapes await in magnificent parks that have been designated UNESCO World Heritage sites.

Based on a photograph by Canadian nature photographer Missy Mandel, the reverse features vibrant colour over detailed engraving that showcases thefamous mountain landscape of Banff National Park. The viewpoint from the Bow Summit Lookout affords a sweeping view of the forested valley below, where the partly clouded sky has cast shadows over the terrain. Sunlight shines through the clouds and enhances the colourful appearance of Peyto Lake, which steals the spotlight with its dreamlike, turquoise hue. The glacier-fed waters are nestled among the RockyMountains, where snow-capped peaks add a majestic quality to the scenery as they seemingly rise up totouch the sky. The reverse also features the engraved word "CANADA" and the dates "1867-2017" to commemorate the 150th anniversary ofConfederation.

Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with a black beauty box.
