Our 2023 Canadian Lynx 1/4 oz Gold Reverse Proof Coins are a sight to behold with their beautiful visual contrast. These coins have frosted background fields that contrast sharply with clear, mirrored finishes on the designs and lettering, making them true works of art. You can acquire them individually in plastic flips, in sheets of 20, or in convenient boxes of 800 coins.

Obverse

On the obverse of the coin, you’ll find Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, portrayed in Susanna Blunt’s 2003 design. This design, created by a Canadian artist, is the fourth to feature Queen Elizabeth II during her reign and notably lacks her crown. The inscriptions read ELIZABETH II, D.G. REGINA, 10 DOLLARS, and 1952-2022.

Reverse

The reverse field of the 2023 Reverse Proof Canadian Lynx Gold Coin features the majestic lynx. Canadian Lynx are solitary and known for their secretive nature, primarily active during the night when they hunt for prey. Inscriptions here include CANADA, 2023, 9999, FINE GOLD, 1/4 OZ, and OR PUR.

History

The primary prey of Canadian Lynx is the snowshoe hare, a significant part of their diet. Their population dynamics are closely tied to the cyclical fluctuations in hare populations. When hare populations are abundant, Lynx numbers tend to increase.
