Designed by Canadian artist Stéphanie Gauvin, your coin presents a striking artistic rendition of a quintessentially Canadian winter landscape, from the snow-covered trees and mountain peak to the wood ski chalet that is nestled at the heart of it all. Even as the winter sun sets on an activity-filled day, the chalet's rustic charm adds another welcoming element to the beauty of the Rocky Mountains and the tranquility of its setting. The useof extensive colours—from a winter-cool palette of blues, violets, and greens to the rich brown wood hues—recreates the playful way that light transforms the winter landscape as the fading sun sets on one of the season's brightest days.
