This fine silver collectable coin features forested setting of the Observatoire du Mont-Mégantic in Quebec beneath a clear, star-filled, full colour sky. A globule of borosilicate glass shines with a stunning image of the universe. The round, crystal-clear qualities of the glass are similar to peering through a telescope lens, and its luminescence further enhances the viewer’s experience of gazing into the galaxy. Both the coin and the glass element have a glow in the dark effect to capture the faint glow of the galaxy.
