We have only three available for our customers. TWO-OUNCE 99.99% PURE SILVER COIN! For our Canadian customers, this coin is GST/HST exempt! Canadian artist Trevor Tennant created an immersive design that places the viewer within feet of a polar bear navigating the sea ice. Exceptional detail and beautifully executed color capture the subtleties in the bear’s thick coat, the warm glow of the setting sun that fills the Arctic sky, and mirror-like openings in the sea ice. When exposed to black light, a different scene appears: Day turns to night as the sun sets behind a fiery orange horizon, and northern lights fill the sky with a ribbon of glowing yellow and green. Each coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell protected by a black beauty box. Unsearched All of the coins offered in this listing are unsearched. Many coin dealers search all coins when they are received from the Mint. They “cherry-pick” the best coins. Then submit them to be graded, certified, and slabbed by PCGS, NGC, ANACS, etc. When a dealer searches coins, those that they sell in original Mint packaging are only lesser quality coins. Photos: When a listing offers multiples of the same coin, one coin is picked at random and photographed. Since all coins offered in that listing are essentially identical, the coin photographed is representative of all coins offered. These photos were taken through the plastic cling film that protects the coins; any dust, etc. On the outside surface of the capsules doesnt affect the coins. Surface areas that appear black on some proof coin photos are actually highly polished, mirror-bright metal reflecting the color of the camera. We place the coin at an angle, in some photos, to better depict the mirror bright finishes. However, angling the coin usually results in one side of the coin being slightly out of focus. Whenever possible, we use actual photos of our coins, rather than just artists conception drawings from the Mint. We frequently update and upgrade the photos that appear with our listings, using improved cameras and lenses and better lighting. We will honor your requests for additional photos as quickly as our schedule permits.
