This sterling silver coin brings the life of early Canadian settlers to life during the winter time. When faced with the challenges of winter, early settlers demonstrated boundless fortitude and adaptability. To maintain a sense of play in the winter season, neighbours would unite to go tobogganing or sliding on the ice. Knowing they were travelling home to a warm fire made the winter work and play all the more satisfying.
