History & Design

The Royal Canadian Mint's wildlife series has set a consistent standard for what nature-themed bullion can be — not just a coin with an animal on it, but a genuine portrait, rendered with the care and technical ambition that the subject deserves. The bison, with its weight of history and its place in the North American imagination, is a fitting subject for that treatment.
