Here is the coin which started this journey of ours to build our own mint. When we started posting pictures of our first gold issue, it was then when our sub-contractor terminated working with us and leaving no viable option but to build our own mint so we could fabricate our own. Its beyond clear to us, that we really poked a wasps nest with this one and its taken all these years to recover from that sad decision they took. We clearly pissed off those who hate the Arrow and what she represents. Our answer is “Tough. Deal with it. We now own and control our own mint and there is nothing that can stop us.”

As an artist, trained at the prestigious Emily Carr Institute, which went on to become Emily Carr University, Green paid close attention to every possible aspect of the symbolism within the coin. Given the RCAF was flying towards their 100th Anniversary, he created 100 tiny squares around the perimeter to reflect its anniversary and because the first Arrow to fly was RL-201, he placed in 201 tiny round dots around the interior perimeter to reflect this, something which all coins issued by Beaverworks Mint still to this day reflects to connect all coins to their historical origins. With the issue of this unique, made in Western Canada using .9999 pure gold refined by the Royal Canadian Mint, extreme attention to detail is paid to absolutely every single aspect of minting and packaging this coin. We will soon be resuming taking orders for this so please check back again soon.

“It’s not just a coin, its a statement of a steadfast belief Canada can and should be building our own and the Arrow was the apex symbol of airborne dominance.”

In keeping with his training, he ensured that every possible aspect of what “this” represents, reflects the entirety of what the Arrow represented to Canadians: the pinnacle of achievement. Even within packaging, every aspect of how someone would approach it, open it, view it, interact with it, all of it was accounted for and thoughtfully and lovingly added to the packaging. When collectors purchase the coin, with the optional premium packaging, it is a coin within a box, within a box, within a shipping carton and with each layer, it builds anticipation and excitement for the collector. Since there is only one opportunity for a first impression, it has to be done right and in such a manner where people are left truly happy with their new art piece.

Great care was taken for every element of the packaging, from its geometry, layout, graphics, how it will close and seal, the finish, the magnetic locking lip, the materials…all of it. If you are producing something for collectors or customers, you have to invest thoughtful consideration into the additional elements aside from the coin which serve to highlight the coin, protect it while in transit while also still delivering on the final result. You can’t just make a coin and call it a day, well I suppose you can, but that’s not how we do things around here. We don’t do it that way, because that’s not the correct way it should be done. Every possible aspect of the entire package needs to be at the very least thoughtfully considered, then if needs be, discarded, this way at the very least, you have a reason why some element is included or not within the final work.
