Call of the Wild: Growling Cougar 1 oz Gold
"By 2010, an estimated 166,000 tonnes of gold had been mined throughout history. World consumption of mined gold is 50% consumed in jewellery, 40% in various investments and 10% in industrial applications. Gold deposits identified up to 2008 were estimated at 26,000 tonnes. At 2005 extraction levels, these deposits would last about 14 years. Gold is the most malleable of all metals - one gram of gold can be broken into a sheet of 1 m²''. The cougar is one of the most powerful, elusive and beautiful predators living in Canada. A species of carnivorous mammal in the cat family (Felidae) that inhabits the Americas from Canada to Patagonia (although it has been extirpated in many regions). Life span reaches up to 12 years.The coin, due to its faithful reproduction of the image of the growling cougar, is sure to be memorable, and its purity makes it an excellent investment and collector coin.
The obverse of the coin is decorated with an exquisite profile of Queen Elizabeth II, the face value ($200) and the year of mintage (2015).
The reverse of the 2015 coin features an image of a growling cougar, the country of minting (Canada), the weight of the coin and information about the gold sample in which it was struck (0.99999).
