Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2008 Canadian $25 Elizabeth II (Figure Skating) silver coin is that it features a unique reverse design that showcases a figure skater in mid-jump, with the frozen moment captured in a spiral motion. This design was created by Canadian artist and designer, Susanna Blunt, and it is a departure from the traditional coin designs that feature a static image of a figure skater. The spiral motion gives the coin a dynamic and energetic feel, capturing the movement and grace of figure skating.
