From the Royal Canadian Mint, 'This beautifully engraved and colored 99.99% pure silver coin features the admiral butterfly, whose Canadian habitat is largely limited to southern Ontario. The colors and spots adorning this graceful butterfly are an important adaptation aimed at protecting it. In fact, the Admiral butterfly has evolved to mimic a venomous butterfly, the Aristolochia butterfly. The limenitis arthemis astyanax closely resembles its close relative, the white admiral, a very common butterfly. The upper wing is a brilliant shade of bluish purple, highlighted by several rows of blue-white lines. The upper hindwing is embellished with lovely blue-green squares. Where their ranges overlap, the Admiral also bears the white bands that characterize the White Admiral. Admiral butterflies are most often found on the outskirts of wooded areas, on sunny gravel roads and in clearings.'"

The hands that once helped us up now encourage us to stand on our own two feet. Inspired by time spent with his daughter, Douglas R. Laird painted this precious scene - now reproduced on a coin - that illustrates the pleasure of sharing good times with family, and encourages young people to realize their dreams. While skating has long been a popular winter pastime for Canadians, it's figure skating that has really taken off in Canada over the past century. The power, grace and beauty of the skaters, whether in singles or pairs, fires the imagination and inspires thousands of children every year to take part in one of Canada's many world-class figure skating programs."
