To many First Nations tribes, the moon is a sacred symbol. Because it brightens the darkness and rules the tides, the moon is seen as a powerful protector, grandmother, and matron of the earth. Your coin recreates the wood grain of the Red Cedar that was used to carve the actual wooden moon mask in incredible details. Your coin was created through a minting technique that builds the apex of the silver relief image to the extreme heights usually found only in Medallic art, where dimensional images are created through the casting processes of sculpture. 99.99% pure silver. Richard Cochrane (reverse), Susanna Blunt (obverse). 999 PURE silver, includes Certificate of Authencity and case.
