2022 $20 FINE SILVER COIN
BLACK AND GOLD: THE SEA OTTER

LIMITED TO ONE COIN PER CUSTOMER PER ADDRESS.

3rd coin of the series Black and Gold.

One of the things nature does best is balance, and the sea otter is the perfect example: this adorable creature works hard, but it also makes time to float arm-in-arm (or paw-in-paw) with a loved one. Once hunted to the point of extinction on Canada’s Pacific coast, the sea otter has been reintroduced to its former habitat, where its appetite keeps sea urchin populations in check—this, in turn, helps to protect the kelp forests that are home to hundreds of other species. It’s all about balance, which is beautifully represented on this coin’s dual-plated reverse.

 Gold and black rhodium plating. Create balance and harmony with this Black and Gold Sea Otter, find inspiration for joy and wonder in the beautiful things in life.
 Dynamic design. Like 2020’s The Canadian Horse and 2021’s The Grey Wolf, this coin’s reverse design is inspired by the yin yang symbol. No matter which way you view the design, you’ll always get a full glimpse of the sea otter floating on its back.
 Three different alloys. This coin has a 99.99% pure silver core, but on its reverse, yellow gold and black rhodium plating divide the design into two opposing but complementary halves. It is an inspiring representation of an industrious yet playful Canadian species, one that was hunted to extinction and later reintroduced to the coast of British Columbia, where it has had a big impact on the marine ecosystem.
 Low mintage. Limited to 6,500 coins worldwide.
