2025 Canada $20 Moon Sky Raven – 1 oz. Fine Silver Coin

Gaze into this holographic night sky as Raven soars to new heights.

Benevolent creator and mischief maker, bringer of light and keeper of secrets: the Raven plays a central role in many Inuit legends. These stories are passed down to each new generation of artists and storytellers, inspiring them to create beautiful interpretations of these timeless tales, as seen on this 99.99% pure silver coin. Developed in collaboration with Nunatsiavut artist Bronson Jacque, this coin’s reverse design simultaneously honours the Raven of legends while presenting a new, original take: here, the engraved raven is a representation of our grounded selves, while the hologram-enhanced raven speaks to the power of storytelling and its ability to lift our creative spirits to new heights.

Hologram Technology:

The hologram on this coin is struck directly with 3D embossing micro-textures into the coin’s surface during the minting process. The colors seen in the hologram are not as pigmented compared to a painted coin. They may appear iridescent, shifting between hues such as blue, green, yellow, or red. These effects are intentional and are a hallmark of genuine holographic minting. The appeal of this technology is with the variations in hologram clarity and colour intensity. As a result, the hologram may display a range of iridescent colors that shift depending on, lighting and viewing angle.

In the artist’s own words, “the coin is a reminder that we are more than what we show of ourselves, that we have a colourful world within, one that is capable of creating a light in the darkest of nights.”
