Celebrating Canada Day

On Canada Day, Parliament Hill isawash in a sea of red and white that is a proud expression of patriotism — especially in 2017, when Canadians come together to celebrate 150 years of Confederation. Step into the nation’s biggest birthday celebration with a photoluminescent coin that captures the soaring spirit of the daylong festivities, culminating in a spectacular fireworks display.
An extremely low mintage and compelling art combine to make this one of the most appealing coins to celebrate Canada’s 150th Anniversary of Confederation. There’s a timeless quality to Jesse Koreck’s reverse design, which provides a lasting snapshot of Ca nada Day festivities on Parliament Hill. The view of the Centre Block building helps create a more immersive viewing experience — one gets the sense of being there in person, among the hundreds of thousands of people who have gathered on the lawn to take par t in this joyous occasion. The outpouring of national pride is evident in the revellers’ red - and - white clothing and the prominent placement of Canadian flags. However, the crowd’s attention is focused on the sky overhead, where the aerobatic Snowbirds Demo nstration Team performs a thrilling fly - past above the iconic Peace Tower. The use of a full colour application adds a rich vibrancy to the daytime scene; but the strategic integration and layering of photoluminescent technologies allow for a surprising tr ansition to night. When viewed under a black light, a day of celebrating has reached its spectacular climax with an unforgettable pyrotechnic display! Black light and glow - in - the - dark technology re - create the elaborate firework finale above Parliament Hill , where the dazzling array of colours and patterns faintly illuminate the buildings and the crowd below.
