Majestic Canada Goose: XXL Silver Coin with Iconic Design Exclusively at StoneX Bullion
In the clear expanses of the Canadian sky, the majestic formations of Canada geese announce the changing seasons. These magnificent birds, which nest throughout the country and travel extensive migration routes from the Canadian tundra to the southern U.S. and Mexico, are a symbol of North America's unspoiled nature. With the new 2025 silver coin featuring the Canada goose in its natural habitat, collectors can add a piece of this wilderness to their collection.
Background Information
The Canada goose (Branta canadensis) is one of the most recognizable symbols of Canadian wildlife. Its long migration routes and adaptability to various climates make it a fascinating bird. In recent years, due to climate change, their migratory patterns have shifted, with more geese now wintering in Canada or even nesting in Greenland. As early as the 17th century, the Canada goose was brought to Europe, where it remains a popular game bird to this day.
A similar design appeared in 1967 on a Canadian Silver Dollar commemorative coin celebrating the 100th anniversary of Canada’s Confederation. The classic design by Alex Colville also featured the Canada goose in flight and is considered a timeless masterpiece of numismatic art. This tribute to the majestic animal blends tradition with modern security features, bringing a piece of Canadian history back to the world of collectors.
Reverse
The breathtaking design on the reverse side of the coin, created by Steve Hepburn, captures the powerful elegance of the Canada goose in mid-flight. Detailed feathers and the goose's characteristic silhouette reflect the strong connection this symbol has with nature. Fine radial lines in the background enhance the dynamism of the design while contributing to the coin's unique security features. The year "2025" and a maple leaf with the micro-engraved number "25" symbolize the precision and quality of the Royal Canadian Mint.
Obverse
The obverse side showcases a portrait of His Majesty King Charles III, artfully crafted by Canadian artist Steven Rosati. Surrounded by fine lines and inscribed with a face value of 10 Canadian dollars, the portrait highlights the coin's elegance and high collectible value.
Special Features
What makes this coin special is not only its intricate design and depiction of the Canada goose but also its innovative security features. Radial lines and a micro-engraved maple leaf with the number “25” ensure the highest level of counterfeiting protection. Moreover, the coin stands out with its rare combination of a weight of 2 ounces and a face value of 10 Canadian dollars – a distinctive feature that makes it a sought-after collectible for both nature lovers and coin enthusiasts.
