The mountain avens (Dryas integrifolia), the official floral emblem of the Northwest Territories, is brought to life on this pure gold collectable coin. Often seen carpeting the landscape in higher altitudes across Canada's Northern Hemisphere, this dwarf member of the rose family is identified by its short woody stems, and individual white and yellow flowers that spring into bloom as soon as the snow melts.
All collectable coins have been previously owned. Conditions will vary.
