Delicate ice crystals gracefully floating through the air, each shape reflecting light back on the snowy landscape dotted with evergreens—this is the beauty of a Canadian winter. The Royal Canadian Mint’s Snowflake series of hexagon shaped coins continues, this time featuring a fernlike stellar dendrite captured by photographer Don Komarechka. At the centre of this little icy wonder is a green crystal, its rich hue evoking the majesty of the evergreen trees that remain lush and robust, even amidst winter’s stillness. It’s a dazzling winter themed celebration of the duality of nature, at once mighty and elegant.
