Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1991 Canadian $20 Elizabeth II (de Havilland "Beaver") silver coin is that it features a unique reverse design that showcases a beaver, which is a well-known symbol of Canada, in a naturalistic setting. The beaver is depicted in a stream, surrounded by lush vegetation, and the design is meant to evoke the idea of the beaver's role in shaping the Canadian wilderness. The coin's designer, Robert-Ralph Carmichael, was a renowned Canadian wildlife artist who was known for his detailed and realistic depictions of animals, and his work on this coin is a great example of his skill and attention to detail.
