This large format 2025 $30 two ounce fine silver coin from the Royal Canadian Mint dives into the cool Pacific waters for an unforgettable view of the Orca, guardian of the sea. The selectively gold-plated design by Kwakiutl artist Jason Hunt is styled to resemble a hand-carved cedar panel, with the engraved woodgrain pattern and rope-shaped rim on both sides completing the look. The expressive forms and flowing lines convey chaos amid the waves, as the Orca hunts the Salmon on a moonlit night. It is an exquisite tribute to the guardian spirit that traditionally represents family and strength, and a gorgeous snapshot of Kwakwaka’wakw culture.

 

Both sides include a selectively gold plated rope style border.  The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.  Mintage is limited to just 3,500 coins.  HST/GST exempt.
