2015 Star Charts Glow in the Dark Set of Four $25 Pure Silver Coins (Subscription) - 60-Day Auto Delivery Program

This new 2015 four piece $25 pure silver coin collection from the Royal Canadian Mint tells the Native Canadian story of how the stars of the night sky came to form the Big Dipper, using exceptional art and glow in the dark technology. The seven stars that make up the Big Dipper are arguably one of the most recognized formations in the night sky. They are visible year-round from northern latitudes, and have inspired countless legends around the globe. Many First Nations legends describe the Big Dipper as a great bear who is hunted ceaselessly by three hunters. 

The story told through this series is about three great hunters who set out in pursuit of a great bear. "That bear is killing all the animals and our people will starve. We must stop it," the elders said. Three great hunters set out in pursuit of the great bear. They tracked it for many moons, across the earth and up into the sky. To this day, you can still see the great bear running across the sky with three hunters close behind. We usually call this formation "The Big Dipper".

The Star Charts series coins tell the story in four parts - each beautifully represented on a $25 pure silver coin containing just over an ounce of pure silver. Each coin features a vibrant and artistic full colour image, and utilizes glow in the dark technology for the first time ever on a Canadian silver coin. When the lights go off, the stars glow brilliantly, forming an image the three great hunters and the bear, or the big dipper. Even the packaging for this set is beautiful, with the outer boxes joining together to form one cohesive story, including glow in the dark imagery.
