Nature is a web of intricate connections, and wildlife is a breathing expression of the land. For both coins in your series, we selected Canadian artists whose artwork had not yet appeared on a Mint coin: Caitlin Lindstrom-Milne and Jayson Fuerstenberg. Both artists were able to capture the inner natures of their animals, and their profound relationship these animals share with the land and their prey.

Designed by Canadian artist Caitlin Lindstrom-Milne, your coin features an upper-body portrait of a grizzly bear against a gold-plated background of Canada violets within a series of squares. A sockeye salmon swerves in front of the bear’s muzzle that iswide open in an attempt to catch the fish. A waterfall with distant mountains is engraved within the bear’s silhouette. Rocks protrude from the water and line the riverbank where evergreens grow. “CANADA 2019 50 DOLLARS” appears in the lower left quadrant of the design. Its engraving echoes the curved shape of a swimming salmon. Onthe obverse, the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt with “ELIZABETH IID.G. REGINA” engraved along the outer edge of the coin.

“The grizzly bear is fierce. It dominates the landscape. I wanted to balanceall that power with a delicate flower that grows where the grizzly catches salmon. It was an interesting challenge to communicate this duality within the round shape of a coin.” Caitlin Lindstrom-Milne, Artist

Designed by Canadian artist Jayson Fuerstenberg, your coinfeatures an Arctic fox poised on a background of gold-plated snow. The fox’s compact ears andmuzzle are clearly distinguishable in its ¾ profile. Its distinctive long tail warms its legs. An Arctic landscape is engraved within the fox’s silhouette. It features snow-covered tundra, mountains, and a North American brown lemming, the fox’s preferred prey. “CANADA 2019 20 DOLLARS” appears to the right of the fox’s back. Its engraving follows the contours of the drifting snow. On the obverse, the effigy of HerMajesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt with “ELIZABETH II D.G. REGINA” engraved along the outer edge of the coin.

"My artistic style is 'magic realism.' It's anchored in reality, but I add mystery or fantastical elements to tell a story or reveal a deeper meaning. The Arctic fox was perfect for my first coin with the Mint. It's part of the landscape, like the snow and ice, as it travels great distances in search of lemmings, its primary food.” Jayson Fuerstenberg, Artist
