Special Features:
• A first in a new series. Introducing Nature’s Light Show: a new series of glow-in-the-dark, concave-shaped coins that offer a storm-viewing experience from deep inside the habitats of select Canadian wildlife.
• A unique view of nature’s fury. More than just a unique shape, the concave reverse serves a special purpose by re-creating the view from within the underground tunnel, in order to provide a more immersive viewing experience.
• Colour and engraving set the tone. The fox cubs are brought to life by selective colour that extends into the sky, where a jagged lightning bolt heightens the dramatic tension in this scene. The coin’s own silver surface also adds to the story, like light suddenly flashing across the engraved roots and rocks that line the den.
• Glow-in-the-dark effect. In addition to the colour-and-engraved underground view, the integrated use of photoluminescent technology allows for a second viewing experience—this time in the dark, where the scene mimics our own above-ground view of an intense flash of lightning.
• Only 1,500 available—order today. A superbly crafted addition to any collection, the complex design is a fine example of visual storytelling, and is sure to appeal to animal- and nature-lovers alike!
