About
Subscribe today to ensure you receive all four coins!
Wildlife conservation may seem a modern ideal, but acentury ago, Canada and the United States were already working together to protect their shared migratory bird populations.
The Migratory Birds Convention signed in 1916 stands as a groundbreaking milestone in the history of wildlife conservation. It's enforced by Canada's Migratory Birds Convention Act (MBCA, 1917) and America's Migratory Birds Treaty Act (MBCA, 1918) both of which protect species, nests and eggs from unregulated huntingor commercial activities
Today, the Migratory Birds Convention remains a keystone ofwildlife management in North America. As it marks its 100th year, this stunning coin series celebrates four of the migratory species that have undoubtedly benefited from its mission with exquisite designs that feature each bird in its natural habitat.

About the first coin design: The mountain bluebird:
Designed by Canadian artist Claudio D'Angelo, your coin features a stunning side profile of a mountain bluebird in flight over an open meadow, where a nest box sits on a fencepost alongside a rocky stream. Finely detailed engraving gives this portrait a beautiful, life-like quality by recreating the songbird's fine features, from its pointed black bill to the feathers of its tail and outstretched wings. Selectivecolour recreates the mountain bluebird's most defining feature—its dazzling sky-blue plumage—and adds a vibrant, gem-like splash of colour against theengraved rolling foothills of the Rocky Mountains in the background.
