Royal Canadian Mint is really stepping up their coin game recently, producing some coins that feature raw materials like wood, ones that glow in the dark and now, they’re artful designs are actually becoming reproductions of art itself!
The En plein air coin series, this one called A paddle awaits, masterfully recreates a canvas painting of the great Canadian outdoors by using textured colours to raise some of the elements in the painting – giving it a realistic depth and design. The coin is the final instalment of the three part series and will cost $119.95.
This coin will also ship for FREE since it is more than $100, which is the minimum to meet for free shipping on the Mint website.
Another new creative concoction from the Royal Canadian Mint is this three dimensional leaping cougar coin, which is being sold for just $117.95. This is the second coin in the 3D series and was created using printing, embossing, and engraving technologies so that it has the appearance of leaping across and almost outside of the coin.
Both of these coins will be shipped for FREE since they are both above the $100 minimum.
