Comment
This original fine silver coin celebrates the Year of the Dog, the friendliest animal in Chinese astrology. Like man's best friend, natives of the Dog are warm and easy-going. Very loyal, they stay by your side through thick and thin. But make no mistake: they have that uncanny ability to sniff out the essence of people. Which is to say, they'll recognize how much you value them when they receive this most enticing piece!The ideal gift or keepsake for a loved one born in one of the Dog years (1922, 1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994 or 2006), or even a baby born or due to be born between February 16, 2018 and February 4, 2019.
Did you know?
The year belongs to the Dog every 12 years; in addition to 2018, it has also reigned over 1922, 1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994 and 2006. However, the date of the Chinese New Year varies from year to year, as it corresponds to the Spring Festival. People born in January or February therefore don't necessarily have the same sign as those born later in the year. For example, the Year of the Dog begins on February 16, 2018 and ends on February 4, 2019.
Natives of the Dog generally enjoy good health, as they are active and cheerful by nature.
Professionally, they do very well in professions that involve helping others (they are excellent nurses, lawyers, psychologists or scientists, among others).
Famous people born under the sign of the Dog include Cher, Winston Churchill, Jane Fonda, Prince William, Connie Chung, Elvis Presley, Terry Fox and the quintuplets Dionne and Eugene Levy.
Sympathetic, Dogs get along wonderfully with people born under the sign of the Horse, Rabbit or Tiger. They are less understanding of the Rooster, however, and have no affinity with the Sheep or the Dragon, who tend to be presumptuous.
Packaging
The coin is encapsulated and presented in a burgundy double-shell case adorned with the Royal Canadian Mint logo. The case comes with a black protective box.
Interesting fact
The interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that showcases a German Shepherd dog, which is a popular breed known for its intelligence, loyalty, and protective nature. The design is surrounded by a radial pattern that adds an extra layer of security and visual appeal to the coin. Additionally, the coin's silver content and high level of detail make it a valuable collector's item for those interested in numismatics.
