Gold plated silver coin $20 Canada 2025 – Honeybee

The honey bee is one of the most important creatures on the planet, playing a key role in maintaining biodiversity and food security. This amazing pollinator collects pollen, nectar and flower oils, converting them into honey, while providing the pollination necessary for plant growth and reproduction. Through its work, bees indirectly contribute to the production of almost a third of the food consumed by humans.

In many cultures, the bee symbolizes diligence, harmony, work and cooperation. Her hard work and contribution to nature evoke respect and admiration, making her worthy of being depicted on a commemorative coin.

Obverse: profile of His Majesty King Charles III. The portrait is executed with particular detail and dignity, emphasizing Canada’s monarchical continuity.
Reverse: The central image is a golden honey bee, placed against a background of a chamomile flower and honeycomb. The hexagonal shape of the coin replicates the structure of a honeycomb – a unique natural geometry, a symbol of stability and order. Designed by Jessica Stewart.

The coin is partially covered with yellow gold, creating a warm amber hue reminiscent of natural honey. The honeycomb background and graceful lines give the composition depth and natural harmony.
