2019 Canada Peace & Liberty 1 Oz. Silver FDP UHR Rev. An incredible opportunity to own a piece of Canadian and American history. Signed by Susan Taylor, designer of the Peace and Liberty Coin, as well as John Mercanti! Susan Taylor began her career at the Royal Canadian Mint in 1981 and remained there until she retired in 2017. She worked as an engraver, sculptor and as the senior engraver until she retired. Susan won the American Medal of the Year Award in 2016. Her work is featured on this very coin on the reverse. The left facing bust with the female personification of Peace wearing maple leaves in her hair. The design features a frosted field and a variety of both lightly frosted and mirrored finish. Her inspiration originated from the Greek word demokratia Her hair is crowned with maple leaves and olive branches that symbolizes the core values of peace, order and good government that have come to inherently represent the Canadian identity. Susan drew also drew inspiration from Augustus Saint-Gaudens who designed the Liberty Dollar. I always found it interesting how American and Canadian history is so intertwined and this is one representation of the wonderful relationship between Americans and our Canadian neighbors. It is incredibly significant that this was the very first time John Mercanti has worked with another North American Mint. This coin is a remarkable point in both American and Canadian history.
