CANADA: Elizabeth II, 1952-2022, AR 20 dollars, 2016, KM-2202, Mont Mégantic Observatory, silver dust swirls together with a variety of borosilicate colored glass pieces to re-create an image of the universe, contains 1 troy ounce of pure silver, with COA and original Royal Canadian Mint case of issue, Proof. Canadian artist Loïc Beaumont-Tremblay has re-created the forested setting of the Observatoire du Mont-Mégantic beneath a clear, star-filled sky. A globule of borosilicate glass shines with a stunning image of the universe. The round, crystal-clear qualities of the glass are similar to peering through a telescope lens, and its luminescence further enhances the viewer’s experience of gazing into the galaxy. From the Royal Canadian Mint, "Every coin has its own unique swirl and each one is captured in a globule of borosilicate glass that has been handcrafted and applied to the coin. The glass was also given added luminescence to capture the faint glow of the galaxy.
