2024 Canada $30 2 oz Fine Silver Coin – The Hunter (Gold-Plated)

A 2 oz, 99.99% pure silver coin from the Royal Canadian Mint featuring "The Hunter" by Kwakwaka'wakw artist Jason Henry Hunt. The design recreates a hand-carved cedar panel: an Eagle hunting above Pacific waters, with an Orca's dorsal fin below, in Northwest Coast formline style.

Selective gold plating picks out the formline design, and both sides carry an engraved wood-grain texture framed by a cedar-bark rope border. It comes with its case, box and numbered certificate (No. 2792 of 4,500).

Historical Significance

Formline is the defining visual language of Northwest Coast art, built from flowing ovoids and U-shapes. By carrying the wood grain of the original carving onto the silver, the Mint set out to honour the carved panel the design came from. Worldwide mintage was 4,500.

Why We Love This One

Two ounces of silver that really look like carved cedar. The gold highlights make the Eagle pop, and it's a beautiful piece of Indigenous art to own.
