2015 Canada 1 oz Proof Platinum $300 Rainbow Trout

This beautifully detailed platinum coin is struck with an arresting image of one of North America's most sought-after sport fish. A variety of finishes and delicate engraving techniques have been used to highlight the intricate details of the fish.

Designed by Canadian artist Curtis Atwater, this coin presents a portrait of a rainbow trout in its natural habitat. The image centres around the rainbow trout, viewed from its left side. The front of its body is angled toward the viewer while its tail curls behind it and to the left in the background. This presentation highlights the trout's unique torpedo-shaped body with small head, characteristic speckling, and shaded stripe along its side. The fish hovers near a fallen tree branch, which fills the background, in a shallow, gravel-bottomed river.

Mintage - 200.
