I think this coin looks amazing, which is a rare break from all the gimmicks of late. What do you all think?

I believe the wolverines play an important part in their ecosystem.

Maybe this looks better in hand, but I can't help thinking that this looks like a bear having problems.

If this is a Coin with a decal, I'm surprised you don't consider that as a gimmick too.

It's a reverse proof bullion coin (none of them are 'gimmicky') and the second in the Animal Portrait series.

Oddly, the graded one shown appears to have PMD with colourizing paint. The coin looks much better without the enhancement but still it's an odd portrait IMO.

There are also 1/4 oz gold versions of these coins.

I believe it is this bullion...

The first was the 2017 big horn sheep.

They are reverse proofs.

Apprciate your reply, CC-Ottawa.
Thank you much.

Somehow missed the Big Horn Ship (wouldn't think to buy, but for the knowledge).

In my opinion, for both coins the artist and Mint did a good job.

I honestly think this is a terrible looking coin sorry. I doesn't hit any of the strings for me.
