Your coin is designed by Canadian artist Simon Ng and features a striking design of an elephant in traditional dressing. Its riding blanket bears a central medallion containing a hologram of two maple leaves. Every detail of your coin is symbolic: the elephant’s long coiled trunk reflects longevity; and itsear, decorated with a chrysanthemum in full bloom, depicts ease and good fortune. Engraved beneath the animal’s belly are the Chinese characters for “peace.” Each type of flower engraved on your coin—for example, on the vase—blooms at a different time in a year. As such, your coin’s motif is designed to extenda blessing of peace throughout the year. Your coin is also engraved with the word “CANADA,” the date “2013” and the face value of “15 DOLLARS.”
