Turtle Island 1 Oz Fine Silver Coin

Inspired by the Ojibwe creation story of Turtle Island, this beautiful 1 oz .9999 pure silver coin celebrates one of the most meaningful teachings in Indigenous culture. According to the sacred story, the world was created upon the back of a great turtle after the muskrat's courageous dive retrieved the soil from beneath the waters, allowing new life to flourish.

Designed in vibrant colour, the reverse depicts Turtle Island as a thriving landscape where trees, flowers, water, and wildlife exist in harmony. More than a beautiful work of art, the design serves as a reminder that even the smallest act of courage can inspire renewal, hope, and a lasting connection between people, the land, and all living beings.

This collectible marks the first Royal Canadian Mint collaboration with Ojibwe artist Patrick Hunter, whose contemporary Woodland-inspired style brings this cherished creation story to life. Drawing inspiration from nature and Indigenous traditions, Hunter's artwork beautifully reflects the enduring wisdom passed down through generations.

Crafted in 1 oz of 99.99% pure silver with a brilliant Proof finish, this meaningful collectible is limited to just 5,000 pieces worldwide and includes a serialized Certificate of Authenticity.
