ROYAL CANADIAN MINT · FINITE SILVER BULLION SERIES
03 / 06Snarling cat on a diagonal limb
READING THE COIN
The third release uses a fallen limb as a hard diagonal. The cougar's paws, open mouth and forward weight turn the round field into a poised attack.
CANADA, purity and bilingual weight legends form a fixed outer ring; William Woodruff's image defines issue 3 inside that shared frame.
