• BIG ON DETAILS: At (27 mm), the engraved reverse is incredibly detailed.
• AN INTRICATE TOUCH OF GOLD: Gold plating adds a rich hue to the rim and the inunnguaq, a revered cultural symbol of Canada’s North. Given the amount of minute details, this artistic touch is an extraordinary feat that required a high level of precision!
• RICH IN SYMBOLISM, ANY WAY YOU LOOK AT IT: The highly symbolic images are arranged in a pattern that also resembles the points of a compass. The design is the same, even when you turn the coin!
