NIAGARA FALLS Fun and Festivities Silver Coin 3$ Canada 2019

The reverse of the coin can almost make you hear the thunderous roar of rushing water. The elevated view provides a sweeping panorama of the Horseshoe Falls in its near entirety. There's a sense of movement above the falls, where the powerful current of the upper Niagara River and the Cascade Rapids sends water racing over the crescent-shaped cataract. A tradition since 1925, the nightly illumination of the falls adds an array of candy-like colours to the water while Canada's longest running fireworks series lights up the night sky, embodying the pride that many Canadians have for one of our most famous natural wonders. On the bottom of the reverse, the inscription: "CANADA" – the issuing country. The obverse depicts the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt and the inscriptions: "ELIZABETH II" – the name of the Queen, "2019" – the issue date, "D.G.REGINA" – Dei Gratia Regina and "3 DOLLARS" – the face value.
