Your journey begins in the west, where selective gold plating adds a golden hue to the setting sun that centres this tribute to Canada's West Coast. The splash of sunshine extends to the Kermode bear, one of several engraved icons that represent land, sea and sky on the gold-framed reverse—a powerful reminder that the whole of nature, all that surrounds us, is beautifully interconnected.
