Celebrate Canada through this rich tapestry of emblems and heraldic elements.
It is a powerful portrait of Canada formed by some of our most notable emblems and heraldry. Meticulously crafted in 5 kilograms of luminous 99.99% pure silver, this collector’s item features a new rendition of the Arms of Canada, redrawn by the artist behind the arms’ present official rendition: Cathy Bursey-Sabourin. The coin’s large diameter (180 mm) allows the viewer to appreciate all the intricacies of the heraldic design, rivalled only by the elaborate border in which the birds of Canada—all 13 provincial and territorial emblems—are paired with heraldic division lines to form a stirring representation of the Canadian landscape.
Canada’s Coat of Arms, as you’ve never seen it before.

NEW RENDITION OF THE ARMS OF CANADA

NOTED ARTIST
Your coin’s reverse was designed by the artist who created and drew the present official rendition of the Canadian Coat of Arms: Cathy Bursey-Sabourin.
DID YOU KNOW?
As Fraser Herald at the Canadian Heraldic Authority, artist Cathy Bursey-Sabourin drew the present official rendition of the Canadian Coat of Arms (or Arms of Canada), which was revised in 1994 to include an annulus bearing the motto of the Order of Canada, Desiderantes meliorem patriam (Latin for “They desire a better country”).
Designed by Cathy Bursey-Sabourin, the coin’s reverse features a new rendition of the Canadian Coat of Arms, redrawn to fit a circular format. Around the Arms, the official birds of the provinces and territories of Canada, as well as heraldic stylizations and division lines representing key geographical features, are arranged in counter-clockwise order to form a pictorial representation of Canada from west to east, and across the north.
Starting at upper left: a Steller’s jay (British Columbia); a line engrailed for the waves of the Pacific coast; a line dancetty for the Canadian Rockies; a great horned owl (Alberta); a line invected for the round hills of the coulee landscape; a tapissé of wheat for the prairies; a sharp-tailed grouse (Saskatchewan); a great grey owl (Manitoba); a common loon (Ontario); barry wavy for the lakes of Central Canada and the Canadian Shield; a snowy owl (Quebec); a black-capped chickadee (New Brunswick); a line nebuly for the high tides of the Bay of Fundy; an osprey (Nova Scotia); a blue jay (Prince Edward Island); an Atlantic puffin (Newfoundland and Labrador); a line wavy crested for the Atlantic coast; a rock ptarmigan (Nunavut); a barry pattern representing the Arctic Ocean and the ice floes in Canada’s north; a gyrfalcon (Northwest Territories); and a common raven (Yukon).
The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
