| Additional information |
Canada's wild horse population — the subject of this issue — is itself a contested subject. The free-roaming herds of British Columbia's Chilcotin region descend from horses that escaped or were released from ranches and Indigenous communities over centuries, and their legal status as wildlife versus feral livestock has never been formally resolved by federal law. The Royal Canadian Mint has drawn on Canadian wilderness themes repeatedly for its fractional gold bullion series, leaning into subject matter that sells reliably to collector-investors in Asian and North American markets.
