2015 Canada Autumn Express $20 1oz Silver Coin Royal Canadian Mint

  

To truly explore Canada is to experience a host of breathtaking, ever-changing landscapes-particularly in autumn when the cooler season flushes Canada's diverse scenery with brilliant tints of red, orange and yellow. Scores of visitors, from simple sight-seers to intrepid travelers, plan special excursions to view the fall foliage; while enjoying a nostalgic ride through the countryside, nature's admirers can peer eagerly from their windows as their train chugs through hills and valleys gilded with seemingly impossible beauty.

As autumn arrives in Canada, forests which were green only days before have now been infused with rich, vibrant colours! It is a phenomenon that never fails to inspire awe in both the wondering visitors experiencing it for the first time, and the fortunate Canadian residents who witness it annually.

Designed by Canadian artist Jacky MacDonald, your coin features a timeless image of autumn in Canada, one that stirs a feeling of wistful nostalgia in its depiction of a beloved, longstanding tradition. Engraved directly into the silver, a classic steam locomotive is seen chugging along the winding, engraved track as a silver cloud of smoke rises up from its chimney. One could almost hear the train whistle echo amidst the tranquility of this forested area, which is ablaze with autumn colours that have been recreated with the use of red, orange and yellow hues of paint. Nature's breathtaking display surely delights the passengers on-board this leisurely fall foliage train ride, as they roll past the maples and birch trees that dominate this Canadian landscape.

The coin comes encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with custom graphic beauty box and Certificate of Authenticity.
