Kaleidoscopes are known for their amazing colorful patterns that are created with tumbled glass and various shapes to distort the normal view. For the first time ever, the Royal Canadian Mint used this concept to create a stunning new design on their coins. The 2016 Proof Canadian Canadiana Kaleidoscope: Polar Bear 1 oz Silver Coin is the first release in the three-coin series that is now available at Provident Metals.
Highlights:
The 2016 Proof Canadian Canadiana Kaleidoscope: Polar Bear 1 oz Silver Coins ship in special maroon clamshell cases from the Royal Canadian Mint. In addition to the maroon clamshell, you will also receive a black beauty box for your coin to display it for all to see.
Since this is part of a three-coin series, the other releases will be of the common loon and the sugar maple, both of which are native to the country of Canada.
Obverse
On the obverse face of each coin, you will see the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. In this image, she is featured in right-profile relief. This exact image was created by Susanna Blunt to appear on all Canadian coinage.
Reverse
The reverse side of each of these coins bears the image of polar bears in a variety of positions across the face of the coin. Shades of blue and white are truly captivating.
History
The Royal Canadian Mint was founded to provide coinage and currency to Canada. After originally opening just one location, a second facility was opened in the 1980s in Winnipeg.
