2022 Canada 1 oz Pure Silve $20 Generations The Red River Métis Coin

Honouring the “Flower Beadwork People”, these beads come together to form a dazzling floral motif that represents a living tradition for the Red River Métis. The second Generations coin celebrates the tradition of Métis beadwork, which is a proud expression of Métis culture and identity, and an exercise in visual storytelling, as seen on this coin. Today, this centuries-old artform is also a powerful statement of continuity, for each bead contributes to a gorgeous tapestry; and that signature craftsmanship is passed down from one generation to the next, inspiring others to create the patterns that stitch together a people’s past, present and future.

KEY FEATURES:
