2011 $10 FINE SILVER COIN - WINTERTOWN

A sleepy snow-covered town slumbers in the deep night. It is winter’s first snowfall. Perhaps the townspeople, tucked up in their cozy houses, dream of the coming of spring...Or maybe their heads dance with visions of days filled with skating, sledding, and wintry adventures.

All across Canada, in quiet towns just like this one, winter awakens people’s spirit of fun and community. Who can resist the allure of gliding on the local skating pond or night- lit rink? Sledding, sliding, skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing...even when winter whips up its deepest snows and chilliest winds, nothing can keep Canadians from the joy of a pristine snow-covered hill or freshly cleared patch of ice. A hot cocoa cradled in mittened hands, the promise of a crackling fire: these are the hallmarks of Canadian winter.

Artists have long celebrated the inviting appeal of a snow- covered small town after the first snowfall: painters and sculptors have captured it, songwriters have immortalized it, writers have evoked its many charms. An enduring image, it remains cradled deep in the Canadian soul.

The Design:

This Wintertown coin captures an enchanted glimpse of a sleepy snow-covered town as it slumbers through the cool night. It is winter’s first snowfall. Perhaps the townspeople, tucked up in their cozy houses, dream of the coming of spring…Or maybe their heads dance with visions of days filled with skating, sledding, and wintry adventures.  The scene is enhanced with brightly coloured green holly and red berries, giving the coin a festive holiday feel.



Special Features:
- Features a peaceful scene of trees and houses bordered by coloured bright green holly leaves and red berries.
- Crafted in 99.99% pure silver.





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.  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.
