Your coin's design is based on a photograph by Matt Eggink of Parliament Hill's Peace Tower and features a unique Colour Reveal that lights up by use of a black light. These colours are based on the projections on the Peace Tower in the final section of Northern Lights, the sound and light show on Parliament Hill. The obverse design features Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth ll by Susanna Blunt.

“I thought it was important to capture a perspective that is realistic to a spectator's view as they watch the light show.” Matt Eggink, Artist

• Amazing technology. What technology turns Parliament Hill into a screen of over 143 meters long and 30 storeys high? 17 different projectors work together to form a seamless image on the front façade of Centre Block, creating a high-definition visual and sound experience.
• Open to the public. Northern Lights is a free bilingual show presented nightly from early-July to early-September by Canadian Heritage. More than one million visitors have seen the show since its inception!

Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell with a black beauty box.
