Wanduta : Portrait of a Chief
The reverse features a full-face portrait of Wanduta (Red Arrow), a Sioux Valley Dakota Chief who defended the community’s ceremonial dance rites when such activities were prohibited under the Indian Act. The full application of colour over the engraving captures the beautiful complexities of Wanduta’s traditional regalia, circa 1913. Finely detailed engraving adds texture to the eagle feathers that adorn the full headdress, as well as the beautifully coloured beads that are woven ina geometric design on the headband above Wanduta’s brow. Aroundthe spiritual healer’s neck is a treaty medal—a symbolic display of a Dakota leader’s peaceful intentions and a reminder of historic alliances with the British.
WANDUTA : PORTRAIT OF A CHIEF - 2016 CANADIAN COINS is categorised COINS AND PAPER MONEY / 08- ROYAL CANADIAN MINT / 15- ART & CULTURE and sold by l'Imaginaire, a store and specialised website.

Très belle pièce de monnaie, vraiment exceptionnelle, très lourde , 5 onze d'argent, beau portrait , un peu dispendieux comme achat mais la beauté de la pièce le vaut. |
