The Eagle: Hand-carved Western Red Cedar Kwakiutl panel, re-created in silver.
From the West Coast to your collection—this 2 oz. 99.99% pure silver selectively gold-plated coin pays homage to the rich artistic heritage of the Kwakiutl (Tsaxis) peoples of the Kwakwaka’wakw nation by showcasing a contemporary work of art that is rooted in traditional knowledge.
The coin’s design is inspired by hand-carved Western Red Cedar panels by Kwakiutl artist Jason Henry Hunt, including the wood-grain pattern and rope frame adorning both sides of this coin. Rendered in the Northwest Coast formline style and selectively plated with yellow gold on this coin, the carved work inspires awe for the high-flying Eagle, as he hunts in the skies above the Pacific Ocean, home of the Orca.
From Western Red Cedar to silver: A wood-grain texture and rope frame complete the look.

A PROUD ARTISTIC LEGACY
Artist Jason Henry Hunt comes from a long line of internationally renowned Kwakiutl carvers and artists who have been instrumental in the survival and resurgence of Kwakiutl art.
DID YOU KNOW?
A member of the famous Hunt family of Fort Rupert, B.C., Kwakiutl artist Jason Henry Hunt has inherited a proud artistic legacy that traces its roots from his father Stanley Clifford Hunt, through his grandfather Henry Hunt, and his great-grandfather Mungo Martin—a key figure in Northwest Coast art. Jason’s uncle, renowned artist Richard Hunt, has also contributed designs for several coins, including 2021’s Ramming Bighorn Sheep.
For the Kwakiutl, the Eagle is known as a master of the skies and also believed to have the closest relationship to the Creator. Flying so high that he can travel between the physical and the spiritual world. It is said that while the Creator sends messages down, the Eagle is capable of sending messages up.
Your coin’s reverse was inspired by a hand-carved wood panel by Kwakiutl artist Jason Henry Hunt. Rendered in the traditional Northwest Coast formline style, the image depicts the Eagle—the master of the skies—hunting as it soars in the air, while the Orca’s dorsal fin appears in the waves below. To mimic the look of a carved Kwakiutl wood panel framed by cedar bark rope, the reverse and obverse both showcase an engraved wood grain texture and a rope along the rim. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
