2019 Canadian $30 Zentangle Art: Bighorn Sheep - 2 oz Fine Silver Coin-capsule slightly scuffed

2019 Canadian $30 Zentangle Art: Bighorn Sheep - 2 oz Fine Silver Coin

The dauntless king of the Canadian Rockies lends its likeness to our latest Zentangle®-inspired design. Within the outline of the animal’s woolly features and curved horns, an array of finely engraved abstract patterns comes together beautifully to form an exceptionally complex and wildly creative portrait of the bighorn sheep, or Ovis canadensis—“sheep belonging to Canada.” This extraordinary design style is a highly intricate celebration of illustrative art and nature, one borne of creative spontaneity and reminiscent of Zentangle® art, where each line and dot combines to form a breathtaking image that is far more than just the sum of its parts.

Design

The bighorn sheep lends its likeness to an artistic re-imagining on your coin, where an original concept by illustrator Jori van der Linde is brought to life by fine engraving and multiple finishes. Inspired by the Zentangle® method of drawing, a captivating combination of abstract patterns adds a sense of texture, depth and creative contrast to this creative portrait, as each motif fills the space within the outline of the sheep’s distinctive curled horns and woolly features. The reverse includes the engraved face value “30 DOLLARS”, the year “2019” and the word “CANADA”. The obverse replicates one of the patterns from the reverse and features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.

Packaging

Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with a black beauty box.
