Exceptional craftmanship
In my opinion, this coin is extremely well crafted by the artist. The detail is exceptional to say the least and the theme of the high arctic igloo is very unique.

Design:
Designed by Canadian artist Yves Bérubé, your coin features an iconic Arctic structure: the igloo. The image presents an Inuit family perfecting the exterior of their home. The man stands on the right side of the image, cutting out a small square for light. This he may fill with a block of clear ice—an ice window. On the left side of the image, a woman carrying a baby in an amaut on her back carefully perfects the igloo’s exterior. A leashed and harnessed Husky sled dog stands before the dwelling’s circular entry tunnel, awaiting his call to duty.
Packaging:
Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with a custom beauty box.
