· Coin is made of Cupro-nickel.
· Obverse: Right-facing profile of Queen Elizabeth II, along with the year and face value.
· Reverse: The reverse design uses lenticular technology to masterful effect, recreating an eerie encounter on a dark night. The glow of a hand-held lantern provides the only light for one anxious young man, who is making his way through the marshes near Dobbin’s Gardens. The first image finds the young man nervously looking over his shoulder, as behind him, an ethereal female figure dressed in white appears to hover over him. Tilting the coin to the other side reveals a frightening transformation: the ghost’s youthful appearance has suddenly aged while the facial features and hands are twisted in a terrifying manner.
The design features spectacular lenticular technology that masterfully tells the chilling tale of Newfoundland and Labrador's Bell Island. A restless female spirit is said to haunt the marshes near Dobbin's Garden. She appears in two forms: one, as a beautiful woman dressed in white; the other, as a frightening old woman. Men who have dared to walk through the area have gone missing for days, only to emerge unaware of any passage of time. But what they do remember is the sudden apparition of a grotesque old woman moving toward them, pushing them to the ground, while the smell of death hangs in the air.
Ghosts, unexplained events and hauntings… there is no shortage of these stories from across Canada. Many have been told and retold so often that fact and fiction are nearly indistinguishable from one another. Canadians of all ages delight in sharing these tales of life and death, of love and tragedy, and of duty and devotion.
A beautiful gift for those who love both ghost stories and tragic love stories, and a great addition to any specialty coin collection. Don't miss out, order yours today!
