2014 Canada $20 The Bison: A Portrait (#1) Fine Silver (No Tax)

2014 Canada $20 The Bison: A Portrait (#1) Fine Silver (No Tax)

The bison is the largest land animal in North America: a symbol of strength, and an important part of the history of the Prairies region of Canada.

Coin was designed by Canadian Doug Comeau and portrays the front-facing portrait of a wood bison. The bison's distinctive shoulder hump stands in contrast to the darker-coloured mane and the curved horns. The bison is standing still, its calm gaze fixed upon the intrusion in its otherwise natural environment. The coin also features edge lettering with the words '1 OZ FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR' engraved in a repeating pattern around the coin's edge.
