Your first coin in the O Canada series features an Inukshuk in raised relief and framed against icy mountains and a frigid, frozen sea. Look closely at the background and you'll see the Aurora Borealis illuminating the northern sky in a dazzling display of shimmering light. A hallmark of the O Canada series, the central image is set between two semi-circular bands - each one laser polished to a gleaming, mirror-like finish - with the top band proudly displaying the word 'Canada' in raised and embossed relief.
