Description
Being placed well within the visible zone of the aurora borealis, many regions of Canada are perfectly positioned to enjoy an amazing view of the northern lights.  Vast regions with little human-made light improve the aurora's visibility and intensity, offering a feast for the eyes.  As Canadians settle in for the long, cold winter with its added hours of darkness, the northern lights offer a good reason to get outside and reconnect with our northern landscape.  Like much of Canada's wilderness, the aurora borealis that we enjoy from sea to sea to sea is powerful, elusive, and humbling - making the companionable warmth of human community even more precious.

Special features:
·        Superbly crafted by Royal Canadian Mint master engravers using a variety of engraving techniques and finishes, and enhanced with color to bring this stunning Arctic image to life.
·        Own a piece of Canada's north, beautifully captured in one-half ounce of 99.99% pure silver.
·        An excellent addition to any nature & wildlife focused, Northern, or Canadiana collection.
·        A beautiful gift or collectible for those who love Canada's North, Inuit, and First Nations heritage, historical images, nature, original artwork, and Canadian themes.
·        For our Canadian customers, this coin is GST/HST exempt.

Design:
This coin features an evocative image of a wolf howling beneath the aurora borealis.  The stunning Northern Lights burst forth in carefully painted glory.  The scene is reflected in the water below, doubling the image and energy of the superb artistry of the Royal Canadian Mint engravers.  Exceptional techniques in engraving and finishing have been used to convey the energy and power of the scene in pure silver.

Packaging:
Each coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell protected by a custom beauty box.
