From the edge of the Arctic tundra to the Great Lakes, the little brown bat owns the night by using echolocation to locate its insect prey. Our Nocturnal by Nature series continues its exploration of a nocturnal Canada, using selective black rhodium plating to set the tone for a night-time encounter with the diminutive flying mammal. Your coin includes the second-time use of black rhodium plating that lends itself perfectly to recreating the dark night sky and allows the moon’s uniquely frosted finish to shine through. The light-and-dark contrast of your coin sets the perfect mood for a night-time hunt, while enhancing the natural silver shine of the engraved bat in the foreground. Tilt your coin to alter your perception of the plating’s hue, which varies from a dark black color to a gun-metal grey, and adds to the contemporary look and feel of the overall design. Your coin is a dynamically layered design that is brimming with detail, thanks to the intricate engraving that re-creates the lunar craters and the bat’s most distinguishing features.
