Reverse description
Enhanced with selective gold plating, the reverse is a representation of the Earth element in nature. A spring blossom contained within a bulb-like shape symbolizes nature’s cyclical renewal; as a repeating motif, it forms the petals of a larger flower shape, while the overlapping arrangement of tree branches and roots is representative of steadfast growth. At the centre, a standard grade ammolite that has been ethically sourced from Alberta’s Bearpaw Geological Formation is set in a 3D mount fashioned by Canadian jewellery manufacturer Beverly Hills Jewellers; the gold-plated setting allows the suspended gemstone to “dance” at the slightest movement of the coin base.
