Design
Canadian artist Margaret Best has created a dynamic design on
this coin showcasing Canada's cherished maple tree from an
exciting and unexpected perspective—from beneath its canopy
looking upwards along its trunk towards the outstretched branches
above. In the foreground, two colored leaves gently drifttowards
the ground to accentuate the maple's beauty in autumn. The tree
fills the entire design of your coin, which is also engraved with the
word "CANADA," the date "2013" and the face value of "20
DOLLARS."
A perfect coin for arborists, nature enthusiasts and maple syrup
lovers!
