Designed by Canadian artist Claudio D'Angelo your coin presents a wide-angled view of a precious childhood moment captured under the shade of a grand old sugar maple. Two boys spend a sunny day lazing around outside. In the lower left corner of the image, one young man sits playfully on a tree swing. He looks up at his companion: a baseball-capped boy in shorts sitting on the large bough from which the swing is suspended.
Viewed from under the tree's shade, through the frame of a cluster of sugar maple leaves, the scene presents with touching detail the thick bark, gnarled roots, and stately trunk and branches of the iconic tree. In the distant background we see a wide, open park backed by a cluster of deciduous trees. Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with a custom beauty box. Available for an additional charge. All of the coins offered in this listing are "unsearched".
Many coin dealers "search" all coins when they are received from the Mint. They "cherry-pick" the best coins. Then submit them to be graded, certified, and slabbed by PCGS, NGC, ANACS, etc. When a dealer searches coins, those that they sell in original Mint packaging are only lesser quality coins. Photos: When a listing offers multiples of the same coin, one coin is picked at random and photographed.Since all coins offered in that listing are essentially identical, the coin photographed is representative of all coins offered. Surface areas that appear black on some proof coin photos are actually highly polished, mirror-bright metal reflecting the color of the camera.
We often include proof coin photos with the coin slightly tilted to better depict the mirror bright surfaces. However, tilting the coin may resulting one side being slightly out of focus. Whenever possible, we use actual photos of our coins, rather than just stock artwork from the Mint. We frequently update and upgrade the photos that appear with our listings, using improved cameras and lenses and better lighting.We will honor your requests for additional photos as quickly as our schedule permits.
