Comment
Serie of 7 coins (RCM/MRC#133035).The turtle is one of seven animals featured in the Seven Sacred Teachings practiced by Aboriginal people throughout North America for living a full and happy life. Many groups consider the turtle to be the guardian of Mother Earth's most profound truths of nature. Its back is divided into thirteen sections, one for each of the thirteen lunar cycles that guide the seasons, and reveal the activities and changes that occur during each one; when the sap flows, when berries ripen, when to hunt, when the nights are longest.
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2014 Canadian $20 Elizabeth II (Truth) silver coin with selective gold plating is that it features a unique reverse design that showcases a stylized maple leaf, which is not typically seen on Canadian coins. The maple leaf has been laser-etched to create a sense of movement and texture, adding an extra layer of depth and visual interest to the coin's design. This distinctive feature sets the coin apart from other coins in the Royal Canadian Mint's collection and makes it a standout piece for collectors.
