With a tilt of the coin, the dragonfly circles around the flower.
There’s something magical about seeing dragonflies hovering and darting through the air on a summer day—and that’s exactly what the dragonfly is doing on this 2024 movement coin. On the coin’s reverse, the 3D dragonfly and water lily are each cast in sterling silver and plated with yellow gold, evoking the sun’s warm rays. Tilt the coin and watch as the dragonfly moves around the bloom, which is fully open to reveal the water-like sparkle of a clear crystal—another feature that speaks to the enchantment of a light-filled summer day.
Make summer last with this enchanting movement coin.
COIN HIGHLIGHTS
- A design that you can interact with. Tilt the coin and watch as the gravity-activated dragonfly circles around the water lily! Both elements are cast in sterling silver (92.5% pure).
- New for 2024. A clear crystal lies at the centre of the bloom, where it reflects light like a water droplet on a sunny day.
- 5 oz. of pure silver. Your 5 oz. 99.99% pure silver coin features a large 65.25 mm diameter that provides ample space for both the engraved and cast elements that form this enchanting, interactive design.
- Very low mintage. RCM movement coins sell out quickly, and with a limited mintage of only 1,250 coins, this one will be in high demand too!
- Includes serialized certificate. The Royal Canadian Mint certifies all of its collector coins.
PACKAGING
Your coin sits on a wooden base and is protected by a clear dome that allows you to view and interact with its movement-enabled design. It comes packaged in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded black beauty box.
EXCEPTIONAL REALISM
The engraving further pulls the viewer into the scene, where the hovering dragonfly, the engraved water droplets and the ripples on the mirror-like “water” surface are the only signs of activity in an otherwise tranquil setting.
GOLD PLATING
The two 3D cast embellishments are both plated with yellow gold but there’s a subtle difference between them: the inward curve of the flower petals changes the way the light reflects off the surface, while the golden gleam shines brightly on the dragonfly’s wings and body.
SPECIAL PACKAGING
Instead of being enclosed in a regular capsule, your coin sits on an elegant wooden base and is protected by a clear dome that allows you to view and interact with this newest addition to your collection.
DID YOU KNOW?
Dragonflies love mosquitoes—in fact, a single dragonfly can eat more than 100 mosquitoes per day. Dragonflies use their feet to grab their insect prey, and their serrated mandibles to crush their meal (the order name Odonata means “toothed one” in Greek), all while flying.
On overcast days, you’re less likely to see dragonflies, and sun-loving water lilies tend to keep their petals folded up, too!
Designed by RCM Engraver Ryan Poser, your coin’s reverse captures the light and magic of a summer day in a peaceful aquatic setting. A white water lily (Nymphaea odorata) blooms above engraved leaves (or pads) that lie flat on the mirror-like water surface, where gentle ripples disrupt the stillness of the scene. Surrounded by rows of petals and stamens, a clear crystal sparkles like a drop of water at the centre of the water lily, while a common whitetail dragonfly (Plathemis lydia) is on the hunt and hovers above the flower’s edge. The water lily and the dragonfly are each cast in sterling silver and plated in yellow gold; when the coin is tipped, the motion causes the dragonfly to circle around the bloom. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
