Pay tribute to Daphne Odjig (1919-2016), the trailblazing Anishinaabe artist and first First Nations woman honored on a Canadian circulation coin, with this exquisite 2025 $20 pure silver coin. The reverse vividly captures her signature style through an adaptation of her 1977 Folk Singer, depicting a female figure embracing a drum in flowing, expressive lines, encircled by a stylized fisher motif from her 1978 The Indian in Transition—symbolizing her family name's meaning. Rendered in selective color on .9999 fine silver, the artwork bursts with yellows, blues, and earthy tones. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Steven Rosati, with standard inscriptions. Released September 4, 2025, this limited edition celebrates her role as a catalyst for Indigenous art in Canada.
Crafted to 99.99% purity and weighing 31.39 grams with a 38mm diameter, this coin arrives in a protective black clamshell case, showcasing its mirror-like proof finish and intricate detailing. Ideal for collectors of cultural numismatics, it combines artistic heritage with high-quality minting, making it a standout piece to display or gift in honor of Odjig's enduring legacy.
