The First Release In Wildlife Reflections Series

Many wildlife biologists believe that bears are among the smartest land animals of North America with intelligence levels that compare favorably with that of higher primates. But unlike chimpanzees, who do not recognize themselves at first glance in a mirror, bears are unfazed by seeing their reflections. That’s no doubt due to the fact that bears in the wild see their reflections every day whenever they drink from ponds, streams, and rivers. A bear’s reflection also serves as the first release in the new Wildlife Reflections series from the world-renowned Royal Canadian Mint—and you can get your paws on that coin right now!

Canada’s Grizzly Bear Paws For Salmon

The design shows a colorized image of a ferocious grizzly bear catching salmon in a river, his reflection staring back at him. Struck in Proof condition, meaning it was expertly crafted by the mint from hand-selected planchets, polished dies and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields. The detail is so exquisite that you’ll be able to see shimmering highlights in the bear’s fur as he catches his evening meal!

Tweedsmuir Provincial Park

The sight of grizzlies pawing for salmon is quite common in British Columbia where the 3,821-square-mile Tweedsmuir Provincial Park provides ample room for bears to roam—especially on the Bella Coola River between May and October when salmon are present. Thanks to this coin, you can see one of those gigantic bears without the risk of it making tracks all over your body!
