The Royal Canadian Mint just released the $30 Magic of the Northern Lights — 2 oz. Fine Silver Coin in Canada. It's a 99.99% pure silver coin that features the northern lights — which are coloured in green, pink and purple hues — at the centre. The night sky is illuminated by the northern lights and surrounded by the wilderness.

Mountains, trees in a boreal forest and the Great Grey Owl are engraved on the outer ring of the coin to represent the Canadian landscape.

With the engraved landscape and the colourful aurora on the coin, it's like you’re out in the Canadian wilderness, surrounded by tall trees and gazing up at the sky.

Also, the blacklight casts a shadow on the towering treetops and the owl in the forest, making it even more realistic. It actually looks like you're in the forest and looking up at the aurora during the night as an owl flies above you.

If you want to get this northern lights coin, you won't be able to find it in your change because it's not a circulation coin. You have to buy it from the Royal Canadian Mint, and it costs $259.95. A blacklight flashlight is included when you buy the coin so you can see the aurora glow in the dark.

There is a limited mintage of 4,500 northern lights coins.
