In the heart of the lunar-esque landscape of the Ungava Peninsula, in Nunavik, Quebec, lies a breathtaking lake with pure blue waters that stand out in any aerial view. A geological marvel, Pingualuit Crater Lake was created when a meteorite struck the earth approximately 1.4 million years ago. This colourful 99.99% pure silver coin from the Royal Canadian Mint offers you an awe-inspiring view of the natural wonder: under normal light, you see the Crystal Eye of Nunavik peering out into space; under a blacklight, the reverse design whisks you back in time for a view of the landscape-altering meteorite, mere moments before it slammed into prehistoric Canada and left an almost perfectly circular impact scar. Enjoy a view of the Crystal Eye-and the meteorite that created it! The coin’s reverse features a colourful space view of Pingualuit Crater Lake. A second image-one that only reveals itself under a blacklight-whisks you back in time, for a view of the meteorite on its collision course and directly above the eventual impact site. Crafted in 99.99% pure silver. Comes with a black light flashlight: Shine the light on the coin’s reverse to activate the embedded paint technology, and watch as the meteorite that created Pingualuit Crater Lake suddenly appears! Already colourful, the space setting includes a Moon view and a glimpse of the Milky Way; these elements, as well as Earth’s edge and the lake below, glow when the black light technology is activated. Perfect collectible or gift for astronomers, sky gazers, geologists and explorers. Only 2,500 coins are available to collectors worldwide.
