MOONLIT TRANQUILITY Natures Light Show Glow in the Dark 5 Oz Silver Coin 50$ Canada 2018

The reverse of the coin is designed by Maurade Boynton and captures the mesmerizing nature and raw intensity of a moonlit tranquillity, as seen from a bear's perspective. The coin's concave shape presents a tunnel-like view of the coloured night sky from deep inside a cave; here, engraved details in a proof finish mimic the look of diffused light on the rock walls, which provide safety and comfort to a mother black bear (Ursus americanus) and her curious cubs. Glow-in-the-dark technology stands in for moonlight, which wraps around the white spruce tree and lights up the profile of each bear as together, they view the stars — including a shooting star that only reveals itself when the coin is viewed in the dark. On top of the reverse, the inscription: "CANADA" – the issuing country. On the bottom, the inscriptions: "50 DOLLARS" – the face value and "2018" – the year of issue. The obverse depicts the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt and the inscriptions: "ELIZABETH II" – the name of the Queen and "D.G. REGINA" – Dei Gratia Regina.
