Comment
Serie of 7 coins (RCM/MRC#133035).An honest person is a giant within their community. People are drawn to their authentic nature, their open and accepting ways. Honest people do not pretend to be something they are not, and the words they speak can be trusted 100 percent.
First Nations communities across Canada share an ancient legend of Kitch-Sabe, a giant who walked among the people to teach this sacred virtue. To be called "honest" is the greatest honour. This lesson is also embodied by the raven as it embraces its own gifts and does not long for the beauty, strength or talents that may have been given to others. But the raven can also be a trickster; and too often, people emulate it in this way. People who are truly honest stand tall in the knowledge of who they are.
Honesty is one of the Seven Sacred Teachings that honour the traditional concepts of respect and sharing that are the cornerstones of Aboriginal life. While variations of these teachings do exist throughout North America, this diversity only enriches them and underscores the universality of their wisdom.
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2014 Canadian $20 Elizabeth II (Honesty) silver coin with selective gold plating is that it has a unique feature that sets it apart from other coins. The coin's reverse side features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, but her image is not fully visible. Instead, her face is partially obscured by a layer of gold plating that is shaped like a mask. This design element is meant to symbolize the idea of honesty and integrity, as the mask represents the idea of revealing one's true self. This unique feature makes the coin stand out from other coins and adds an extra layer of meaning to its design.
