2019 THE ELEMENTS Wind Earth Fire Water $3 Square Fine Silver Coin Set RCM

Description: They are the four elements that were believed by the ancient Greeks to be the pillars of life: Earth, grounding and nourishing; Air, always in motion; Fire, provider of heat and light; and Water, constantly flowing. They are the cornerstones of our natural world. And they are especially significant in a nation like ours, with an identity that is so strongly tied to nature. This four-coin set is an original concept proposed by long-time collector and Masters Club member, Bernard Dumais. Its design is a Canadian take on the four elements, complete with maple leaves. And like a four-part image, each square coin comes together to illustrate how these elemental forces of nature have all shaped Canada’s past, present and future—from the warm chinook to our flowing rivers, and a burning sense of pride for it all. Designed by artist Rebecca Yanovskaya, your four-part image ties together the four elements within a circle that represents a continuous circle—Canada’s past, present, and future. Each square coin features aquadrant named (in English and in French) for an elemental energy, with all four elements bleeding intothe other: “FIRE FEU” features the comforting glow of a campfire that symbolizes heat and light, with maple leaf-shaped flames that represent pride burningin the hearts of Canadians.“AIR” is represented by the warm chinook that descends the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains, and the winds that provide lift for ourmigratory bird species.“EARTH TERRE” features the forests, rocks and fields that are the foundation of this land.“WATER EAU” is represented by a fast-flowing river filled with salmon to symbolize the fisheries. The completed circle is framed by red, gold, brown and green-coloured maple leaves, the beloved symbol of Canada. Each reverse includes the engraved word “CANADA” and the year “2019”. Each obverse features the face value “3 DOLLARS” and the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. Our first exploration of a concept that is fundamental to the ancient sciences and philosophy. Instead of symbols, the Royal Canadian Mint opted for a visual storytelling approach by highlighting the four forces of nature at work across Canada. The carefully sculpted design is rich in detail, with different frostings that transform an etched image into a dynamic piece of art.SPECIFICATIONSYear of Issue:2019Mintage: 2,000 Minted By:RCM (Royal Canadian Mint)Country of Issue:CanadaLegal Tender:YesDenomination:$3Metal Element Purity:Silver AG .999Weight: 46.88g (1.505 troy ounces)Diameter:27 mmPresentation:Mint capsules, Maroon Box, Certificate of Authenticity# Elements, Earth, Wind, Fire, Water, Canada, Silver, Proof, Coin TERMS OF SERVICE AND CONDITIONS Domestic Orders Default carriers include Canada Post, Purolator and UPS, amongst others.
