Descrption:
Forged by the esteemed Royal Canadian Mint, the Arctic Fox emerges as the star of the show, taking its place as the second coin in the series, following the highly lauded Silver Polar Bear coin. The distinctive weight of this silver coin not only captures the attention of collectors and investors but also presents an enticing advantage – the convenience of minimal storage space requirement owing to its slightly larger size. The initiation of “The Wildlife Series” by the Royal Canadian Mint began a few years ago, rapidly ascending in popularity and, for several years, maintaining its status as the most coveted coins ever minted by the RCM.
Gracing the obverse of this coin is the enchanting image of the Canadian Arctic fox nestled in its natural woodland habitat. With a turned head, as if checking for predators or surveying the newly transformed snowy landscape, the portrayal encapsulates the essence of this untamed creature at home. The meticulous detailing, from the fox’s luxuriant coat to the distant snow-laden trees, is certain to leave collectors and wildlife enthusiasts thoroughly captivated. Furthermore, the front of the coin proudly showcases the nation’s name, alongside details of the coin’s purity and weight.
On the reverse side, the coin features the regal effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, expertly crafted to capture her poised and serene countenance. Her image serves as a symbol of Canada’s enduring allegiance to monarchy, persisting even after the conclusion of its period under British rule. Encircling her portrait are her name and the abbreviated Latin phrase “D. G. Regina.”
The Arctic Fox coin not only stands as a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship of the Royal Canadian Mint but also provides a captivating glimpse into the beauty of Canada’s wildlife, making it a prized addition for discerning collectors and enthusiasts alike.
