Design:
Your coin was designed by Canadian artist Tony Bianco and features a montage of the peoples involved in—and affected by—the Seven Years War. Your coin represents the British and French soldiers, the First Nations people, and the colonists; and also features a child to symbolize hope for the future. The group gazes east, across the Atlantic Ocean towards the Old World. The map in the background shows the North American battlefront region, and the banners and embellishments at the top and bottom of the coin echo the typographical styles of 17th- and 18th-century maps and official documents.
Packaging:
Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell case lined with black flock and protected by a customized beauty box.
