Canadian White-Tailed Deer Series - Third Release
In conjunction with the Canadian Royal Mint, SilverTowne is proud to be the Exclusive Dealer in the United States for a Brand New 2014 Canadian Silver Coin Series featuring White-Tailed Deer! The series will highlight the smallest member of the deer family, the white-tailed deer, from different perspectives. This serene creature symbolizes nature’s still and constant presence. Now available for shipping is the third coin in The White-Tailed Deer Series, Mates, featuring a buck and doe leaping over a fallen pine tree.
The 2014 Canada Silver White-Tailed Deer Mates 1 Ounce Proof coin is certified to be 99.99% pure silver with a diameter of 38 millimeters and a metal weight of 31.39 grams. The reverse image by artist Claude D’Angelo features a scene centered around two leaping deer, capturing a powerful and energetic moment. In the foreground, the buck illustrates the "kick-off" stage of a deer's leaping motion, with forelegs bent under its torso and back legs fully extended. His large, powerful neck holds his antlered head aloft and his namesake tail extends up and behind, its bright underside alerting other deer to danger. Just behind him and slightly to the left side of the image, a doe illustrates the landing phase of the leap, as her front legs stretch out ahead of her and her head, neck, and body point downward, while her rear legs, just visible behind her partner, bend toward her belly. The sense of motion is subtly enhanced by the composition, in which doe, buck, and fallen tree share a common trajectory. In the background, a tall conifer forest rises toward the sky.
In addition to the white-tailed deer image, the reverse of the coin also includes inscriptions CANADA 2014 and 20 DOLLARS. The obverse of the coin features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt, along with inscriptions ELIZABETH II and D.G. REGINA. This coin also features unique edge lettering, with FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR 1 OZ engraved around the edge of the coin.
A certificate of authenticity accompanies the coin and attests that the 2014 $20 fine silver coin is proof quality and is authorized by the Government of Canada. Also included is an elegant maroon case enclosed inside a gorgeous box. The silver proof coin was expertly struck by the Royal Canadian Mint, and has a limited mintage of only 7,500 worldwide.
