Interesting fact
The 2017 Canadian Silver Seahorse $20 coin is unique in that it features a seahorse design that has been rendered using a technique called "micro-engraving," which involves engraving tiny details onto the coin's surface using a specialized tool. This technique allows for intricate designs that are not possible with traditional engraving methods, and it gives the seahorse a lifelike appearance that is truly striking.
