It is a formidable guardian of its territory, one that possesses keen senses and strong instincts; feared in folklore yet revered as a hunter, the adaptable wolf (Canis lupus) plays an important role as the apex predator in each region it inhabits. It is also widely seen as a symbol of strength, one that is representative of the rugged wilderness found in remote areas across Canada. In a nod to this remarkable animal—and to this vast country's biodiversity—the engraved portrait of a lone wolf graces the reverse of each coin in this unique fractional set.
This must-have fractional set is a stunning example of our world-renowned craftsmanship as it presents a majestic portrait of a grey wolf across various coin sizes (1 oz., ½ oz., ¼ oz. and 1/10 oz.) while maintaining the same degree of realism, dimension and depth—true artistry!
