2014 Canadian $20 The Seven Sacred Teachings: Truth - 1 oz Fine Silver & Gold-plated Coin
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.
Features

Powerful imagery reveals the perpetual lunar calendar that is preserved in the 13 scutes on the turtle's back.

Design
