It begins with communication—noisy vocalizations and repeated head tosses that indicate intent to fly. Stepping up to the “start line” with unfolded wings, a Canada goose (Branta canadensis) rushes forward to gain speed and momentum before lifting off to join others in the sky, where every wingbeat gives the flock a collective aerodynamic advantage.

Design:

Designed by Pierre Leduc, your 2 oz. pure silver coin steps into the Canadian wilderness, where mountain peaks and evergreens add a soaring sense of majesty tothe engraved lake setting. In the foreground, a selectively coloured Canada goose is depicted just before lift off: its black head is thrust forward as it rushes headlong into the direction of its intended flight, with wings spread wide to gain momentum in order to join the others in the sky. The three flying geese are depicted in a multi-frame hologram, which re-creates the powerful wingbeats and fluid flight movements that carry them across Canada's skies. The reverse also includes the word “CANADA” and the year “2019”. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.

Packaging:

Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with a black beauty bo
