This 2019 $3 fine silver coin features music time in Canada, showcasing one of the many music festivals that take place in our cities and towns. You can almost hear the crowd as the musicians take the stage in this design, which celebrates our music-filled summer nights
The reverse design by Steve Hepburn celebrates the folk festivals that fill the air with music on warm summer nights. A viewpoint from the back of the stage places the focus on the performers: the banjo player and percussionist in the foreground, and the guitar-playing singer who is facing the crowd. The image is framed by stylized icons that represent popular outdoor activities and sights in Canada
