    The sixth coin in the Royal Canadian Mint's exciting new O Canada series focusing on iconic Canadian images, this beautiful coin celebrates the powerful wolf - one of Canada's most fascinating native species.

    The reverse design by Canadian artists Pierre Leduc presents a full-body portrait of a lone wolf in a Canadian forest. The wolf stands at ease, tail relaxed behind it; nevertheless, its bent hind paws appear ready to leap to safety at a moment's notice. The wolf gazes towards the viewer, its mouth low and slightly open in a wolfish grin. Its thick fur, sharp claws, and pointed ears are rendered in dimensional detail through exquisite engraving. The wolf stands atop a rocky outcropping amid small mosses and lichens. In the background, a stand of evergreens rises above and behind the central image. The reverse image is framed with a border engraved with the word 'CANADA,' the date '2013,' the face value of '10 DOLLARS,' and a stylized wolf paw-print. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.

    Your first coin in the O Canada series features an Inukshuk in raised relief and framed against icy mountains and a frigid, frozen sea. Look closely at the background and you'll see the Aurora Borealis illuminating the northern sky in a dazzling display of shimmering light. A hallmark of the O Canada series, the central image is set between two semi-circular bands - each one laser polished to a gleaming, mirror-like finish - with the top band proudly displaying the word 'Canada' in raised and embossed relief.
