The Igloo
This detailed design captures a traditional Arctic scene, where an Inuit family is seen tending to their icy home. On the right, a man carefully carves out a square in the igloo’s wall—likely to be filled with a transparent ice block to serve as a window. To the left, a woman with an infant secured in an amaut tends to the outer structure. At the igloo’s rounded entrance, a sled dog—harnessed and ready—waits patiently for its next journey across the snow.
Canadian Ski Adventure
This energetic scene features a skier gliding over crisp, compacted snow through a winter wonderland. Towering conifers and majestic mountain peaks frame the background, immersing the viewer in the thrill and tranquility of alpine skiing in Canada.
Beneath the Maple Tree
In a quiet, nostalgic moment, a young child is seen climbing onto a wooden plank, which offers the perfect resting spot. Surrounding branches of a maple tree—with their distinctive leaves blowing in the breeze—create a canopy of calm, transporting the viewer to a peaceful afternoon in a Canadian forest.
Cowboy in the Canadian Rockies
This captivating design captures a classic moment in the rugged Canadian wilderness—a lone cowboy astride his horse, leading a packhorse laden with supplies. Together, they navigate a remote trail deep within the majestic Canadian Rockies. Towering, jagged peaks rise in the background, their dramatic presence evoking the timeless spirit of exploration and backcountry adventure.
Arctic Fox & Northern Lights
Leaping into view, the elusive Arctic fox—barely larger than a housecat—takes center stage in this breathtaking coin design. Behind it, the sky erupts in a dazzling display of Northern Lights, casting a surreal glow over stylized mountains and glistening icebergs. The scene beautifully captures the mystery and majesty of Canada’s far north.
