Royal Canadian Mint of Ottawa, Canada (1908-date)Comments
From the Ice Age to the end of the 19th century, the impressive Plains Bison (Bison bison) reigned over the grazing animals of the Canadian prairies, from southern Manitoba to Alberta. The vast herds of free-roaming bison silhouetted against the landscape and the animal's imposing physical features helped make it a symbol of power.
Special features:
- This finely chiseled piece captures an impressive display of power between two plains bison, the largest grazing animal in North America.
- A one-of-a-kind keepsake that pays tribute to Canadian wildlife and a species that has shaped the history of the Canadian Prairies region.
Packaging:
The coin is encapsulated and presented in a padded burgundy double-shell case adorned with the Royal Canadian Mint logo. The case comes with a specially designed protective sleeve.
