The raven is central to First Nation traditions, and this coin celebrates its role in teaching the story of the northern lights.
This coin is the third Royal Canadian Mint offering to feature a hologram, which is microscopically struck into the coin's surface.
Canadian artist Nathalie Bertin has designed a stylized raven soaring above a mountain landscape. The three dimensional raven is actually a hologram, which is a "virtual” image that is actually produced on your retina. In fact, the physical image on the hologram's surface is a seemingly random series of dots.
ABOUT THE ROYAL CANADIAN MINT
The Royal Canadian Mint is known as one of the most reputable mints in the world. The Ottawa Branch of the Royal Mint opened in 1908 and was renamed The Royal Canadian Mint in 1931 when control was transferred to the Canadian government. Their high standards for excellence and quality allowed them to be the first refinery to manufacture 9999 fine gold bullion coins in 1982, as well as the first to reach 99999 fine gold purity in 1998.
