This is the 2nd in a series of coins that glow in the dark showing how shimmering curtains of light ripple through the night sky in the North of Canada.

Northern Lights, aurora borealis, move as though a breeze gently blows the curtains even in when the air is still and there is only silence. The Artist takes advantage of colours that glow in the dark to show two wolves howling into the windless night and their shadows in the moonlight. Thor Peak towers in the background. Expose the coin to natural light and then look at it in the dark to trigger the full effect.

The Royal Canadian Mint is a leader in innovation in colour on collectibles. The first coin in this series sold out quickly with a mintage of 7500. This coin has an even more limited mintage of 4000. It is a significant addition to collections including those with themes of nature, Canadiana and those who follow innovations in the craft.

This coin is encapsulated and presented in an RCM clamshell with a graphic box.
