One is the hunter—the other, the hunted. This four-coin series explores the predator and prey relationship of the Arctic fox and the Arctic hare in Canada’s far North, where the harsher climate necessitates unique adaptations that have set these two species apart. The third coin presents a portrait of the Arctic fox, beautifully re-interpreted as Inuit art.
SPECIAL FEATURES
DESIGN
The reverse design by Inuit artist Andrew Qappik re-interprets the traditional portrait of the Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus) and presents it in a magnificent Inuit art style. Detailed engraving brings this artistic interpretation to life, in a way that showcases the beauty of the stealthy hunter’s profile and its facial features as it faces right, towards its prey.
