Comment
Canadian and Aboriginal art.Singing is an integral part of First Nations cultures across North America, so much so that many Aboriginal languages have no word for the concept of "music".
Day or night, people sing to thank Mother Earth for all her gifts: to express love, to heal the sick, to ask for a successful hunt or for guidance. Nighttime is a particularly magical time for the K'ómoks and Kwakwaka'wakw First Nations of British Columbia. The community gathers to sing to the beat of a drum. Masked dancers breathe movement into the song, the outside world fades away and the melody is carried to the heavens. Sound waves turn to moonlight, and the stars dance too, revealing the ties that bind everything together.
The high-relief motif of this piece is enhanced by selectively applied colored enamel.
Packaging
The coin is encapsulated and presented in a wooden box featuring the Royal Canadian Mint logo. The box comes with a black protective box.
Interesting fact

This innovative design feature adds an extra layer of beauty and collectibility to an already stunning coin.
