10 oz 2025 $100 The Hunter – Fine Silver Coin
2025 Canada $100 The Hunter - 10 oz Fine Silver & Gold-plated Coin The master of the skies returns to stun on this 10 oz. edition. The Kwakiutl carved panel design from 2024’s The Hunter is superbly re-created on this 2025 piece, where the larger (76.25 mm) diameter provides more space for the master of the skies to spread his wings and fly. The Eagle is resplendent in yellow gold plating, as is the Orca’s fin seen moving through the waves below. Both sides of the coin feature an engraved woodgrain pattern that mimics the straight-grained look of western red cedar, while the twisted cedar rope frame has been brought in slightly to form a tighter fit around this 10 oz.-sized work of contemporary Kwakiutl art. A bigger canvas than in 2024, now in proof finish! Features: A 10 oz. tribute to the Master of the skies. One of our buzzworthy designs of 2024, The Hunter makes the leap from 2 oz. to 10 oz. of 99.99% pure silver in 2025, now with an exceptional proof finish for unmatched brilliance. Ancestral storytelling recounted in modern times. Paying homage to the rich cultural heritage of the Kwakiutl (Tsaxis) peoples of the Kwakwaka’wakw nation, The Hunter features two culturally significant species: the Eagle, believed to have the closest relationship to the Creator; and the Orca, a guardian spirit symbolizing protection and community. Rope frame. To complete the look of a Kwakiutl-carved wood panel, a cedar bark rope frame encircles the engraving on both sides of the coin. Includes a special art card and serialized certificate. Your coin comes with a serialized certificate of authenticity and a special insert featuring the artist’s original sketch, image of the coin model and an explanation of the design. No GST/HST. Design: Designed by Kwakiutl artist Jason Hunt and rendered in the traditional Northwest Coast formline style, the coin’s reverse depicts the Eagle—the master of the skies—hunting from above as it soars through the air, while the Orca’s fin appears in the waves below. To mimic the look of a hand-carved Kwakiutl cedar wood panel, the reverse and obverse both feature an engraved wood grain texture and a rope-like frame. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati. The look of a Kwakiutl carved wood panel Inspired by elaborate wood panels hand-carved by Kwakiutl artist Jason Henry Hunt, the reverse design features the formline style that is characteristic of Northwest Coast art, with yellow gold plating accentuating the flowing lines and ovoid shapes that tell the story. A tradition of craftsmanship Artist Jason Hunt is the youngest steward of a rich legacy of creativity that traces its roots through father Stanley Clifford Hunt and back to grandfather Henry Hunt and great-grandfather Mungo Martin. His uncles Tony and Richard Hunt are also highly regarded artists and carvers. Wood-grain pattern On both the reverse and obverse, an engraved woodgrain pattern fills the field and mimics the straight-grained appearance of western red cedar.
