Designed by Canadian artist Lauren Crawshaw, your coin features side-by-side portraits of a bison and a giant panda, each in its own natural habitat. On the left side of the image, a bison stands with its low-slung rump curving behind its massive shoulders.Its shaggy, horned head is lowered as it regards the viewer with its right eye. The bison stands on agrassy plain, its brethren visible in the distance behind it. On the right side of the image, a giant panda is seated in thecrook of a tree, looking at the viewer. Seen from its left side, the panda’s renowned black and white markings are rendered through expert engraving. In the foreground is a stand of bamboo. In the distance behind the panda are the mountains of southeastern China. The two scenes are bisected by thecurving trunk of the tree upon which the panda sits.
