Details
The 2024 silver Easter egg coin features intricate folk motifs and vibrant colors, but its reverse is a more modern cultural expression. By combining modern colors with traditional symbols celebrating the connection between the earth and the sun, this Easter egg reflects the evolution of an ancient art form that remains rooted in tradition but offers endless creative possibilities
The egg-shaped Easter egg coin is made of 1 ounce of 99.99% sterling silver and features a bright, intricate design that combines the natural glow of the coin's silver surface.
It is noted that this work is the first design by Tanya Mykytyuk, a second-generation Canadian of Ukrainian descent, for the Royal Court of Canada. The artist has been painting pysanky (the plural form of the word "pysanka") for over 40 years.

The previous coins are sold out. Our silver Easter egg coin has been a bestseller every year since 2016, and all previous Easter egg coins have sold out quickly," says the Royal Canadian Mint.
