Coin Highlights:
The Baby Animal Series, produced by the Royal Canadian Mint, is a great collection for those who have an appreciation for what makes Canada such a wonderful country. Particularly nature and wildlife. The woodchuck is also known as the groundhog.
In the wilds of Canada, woodchucks hibernate during the winter months. They emerge in the warmer months to feed, fatten up and collect food for their babies. The 2016 Canadian Baby Animals: Woodchuck 1 oz Silver Coin Proof features a design that captures a sweet moment between parent and babe.
Each of the 2016 Canadian Baby Animals: Woodchuck 1 oz Silver Coin Proofs in this collection ship securely in a maroon clamshell, tucked within a black beauty box.
