In the crisp morning air, the clouded sunrise and the fog rolling off the steep cliffs add to the sense of stillness in the air. The application of vibrant colour over engraving recreates the life-like qualities of the original photograph, in which the stern of the bright blue kayak contrasts with the muted green and grey colours of the untamed landscape. The reverse also features the engraved word “CANADA” and the dates “1867-2017” to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Confederation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"West Edmonton Coin \u0026 Stamp","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51176294580356,"sku":"154302","price":99.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0967\/3447\/8468\/files\/2017_10_Fine_Silver_Coin_-_Celebrating_Canadas_150th_-_Kayaking_on_the_River_Reverse__22866.1468881652.1280.1280.jpg?v=1759530996","url":"https:\/\/www.westedmontoncoinandstamp.com\/products\/2017-10-fine-silver-coin-celebrating-canadas-150th-kayaking-on-the-river","provider":"West Edmonton Coin \u0026 Stamp","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
