2014 Platinum Portrait of Nanaboozhoo Proof $5 Platinum Coin. 9995 Fine (13874)

A celebration of the time-honoured tradition of Aboriginal storytelling through a series of beautifully detailed coins that depict a beloved Ojibwa tale: the Legend of Nanaboozhoo. The reverse image by Canadian artist Cyril Assiniboine, who is Ojibwa, is a richly detailed effigy of Nanaboozhoo.

While the aboriginal cultural hero is quick to transform into a rabbit in many legends, here he is represented in human form with his face painted. Seen in three-quarter profile, Nanaboozhoo is dressed in a traditional Western Ojibwa dress, feathers stand atop his fur headdress as his long, braided hair spills out from under it. This stunning coin offers an artistic representation of Nanaboozhoo, a key character in many Aboriginal stories. Each coin in this unique new series pays homage to the time-honoured cultural tradition of Aboriginal storytelling through its depictions of the beloved Ojibwa Legend of Nanaboozhoo.
