| Additional information |
The "Four Winds" design belongs to the Pathfinders in Canada series, which the Royal Canadian Mint launched to commemorate the navigational traditions of Indigenous, French, and British peoples who mapped the country's interior. The series leans heavily on the symbolism of wayfinding rather than any single historical expedition — a deliberate editorial choice that keeps the narrative broad enough to avoid privileging one cultural tradition over another.
At 157.6 grams of .9999 silver with gold plating, this is a presentation piece with no circulation history whatsoever. The KM#3055 reference confirms a relatively recent catalog entry with limited secondary market depth.
