COIN #2 of 3: The three-coin Wildlife Reflections series celebrates Canada’s natural beauty through serene scenes set in the Canadian wilderness. Each portrait captures the majesty of both the species and the space it inhabits.

VISUALLY CAPTIVATING: The coin’s reverse features a captivating scene that takes you into the wild. In addition to the finely engraved forest setting, a selective application of colour allows you to experience some of the colourful, unspoiled beauty of the Canadian wilderness.

TEXTURALLY ENHANCED: Take a closer look at the cougar and its reflection—a multi-texture visual effect mimics the look of the cougar’s fur and adds realistic shimmer to the surface of the water.

LIMITED MINTAGE: Crafted in 99.99% pure silver, your coin has a limited mintage of 7,500. A stunning addition to any nature-, wildlife- or Canadiana-themed collection.

DID YOU KNOW?: Because of the cougar’s elusive nature, it’s difficult to estimate population size in Canada. Encounters also tend to be rare since cougars avoid human settlement—they prefer areas where vegetative cover or rugged terrain can provide hiding places for the hunt.
