Design:
Designed by Joel Kimmel, your coin combineslife-like and stylized elements in this depiction of night skiing, where the view is truly breathtaking! Far from the grey, black and white that many associate with winter colours, the setting is dominatedby the cool-toned hues of blue and purple cast by moonlight. The engraving itself gives the design a sense of layered dimension, with the mountain range rising up in the background. In the foreground, thebrightly coloured skier carves their way down the slope and past the snow-covered evergreens, sending plumes of powder snow in the air behind them. The entire scene is further enhanced by the seamless integration of photo-luminescent (glow-in-the-dark) technology that mimics twilight; it softly illuminatesthe entire scene while adding a bright glow to thestars and moon overhead, the amber lights that edgethe ski trails, even our skier's run.
Packaging:
Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a RoyalCanadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with a blackbeauty box.
