Singing Moon Mask - sets of ultra-high relief fine-silver coins (2015) - $349 - (Rimouski, QC)
Sets of ultra-high relief fine silver coins – Singing Moon Mask Singing is an integral part of First Nations cultures throughout North America—so integral in fact, that many Aboriginal languages don't have a word for "music." People sing day or night to thank Mother Earth for all her gifts; to express love; to heal the sick; to ask for a successful hunt; to seek guidance. Night is a particularly magical time for the K'ómoks and Kwakwaka'wakw First Nations in British Columbia as the community comes together to sing to the rhythmic beat of a drum. As masked dancers breathe movement into the song, the outside world falls away and the melody floats to the sky. Sound waves become moonlight and stars dance to reveal the inter-connectivity of all things. This 3-coin set showcases three beautiful finishes (proof, antique and color enamel) all in one set. Each coin is struck in ultra-high relief with extra-deep contours that have been carved into the coin's surface, which can only be achieved through additional strikes and extensive hand-crafting and polishing. A gorgeous gift for someone who enjoys First Nations art. With a low mintage of 3000, this set was sold out within days after its release in 2015. Each coin is made of 1 troy ounce (30.76 g) of fine silver (99.99%) and is 36.07 mm in diameter (1.338 in). Finish is either proof, antique or with color enamel, with a plain edge. This set is brand new, as received from the Royal Canadian Mint. Each coin is encapsulated individually and the set is presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded wooden box with black beauty box. $359.00 for a set of three coins.
