The reverse shows a lone fox on the ice. The obverse has the relief image of the Queen (by Susanna Blunt) against a mirror background. The coin is minted in a beautiful proof finish . Your coin will be sent to you in a 2 x 2 cardboard holder.
With a compact body and an abundance of fur on its ears and paws, the arctic fox (Alopex Lagopus) is perfectly equipped for life in the higher latitudes of North America. In fact, no other canid species lives as far north. Lemmings are its primary food source, but this clever fox also knows it will likely find leftovers from a polar bear's seal kill if it ventures onto the sea ice. In such a harsh environment where food is scarce, scavenging is a key survival skill! As an opportunist, the arctic fox is very curious and will rarely run when it spots humans. It usually approaches to have a closer look!PHOTOS:
Note that the photos I post in my listings are all from my own inventory. However, for items like this one where the products are brand new from the mint and are identical the photo posted in the listing is a STOCK photo meaning that the photos represent the item you will be getting. Photos are taken in natural light so sometimes there's a slightly WARMER reddish or brownish tone to the photos.....this is just because they're taken in front of a large window in order to represent them to you as honestly as possible. Normally there is almost no difference between the photo you see in the listing and the actual product you are sent. Certificate numbers (if shown in a photo) are an example of something that will not be the same in the item you receive.
