Polar bears inhabit the circumpolar Arctic regions across five nations: the United States (Alaska), Canada, Russia, Greenland (Denmark), and Norway (Svalbard). Their range follows the shifting sea ice throughout the Arctic Ocean, with the largest populations found in Canada’s Hudson Bay, the Beaufort Sea, and the Arctic archipelago. Polar bears are a popular sight on Canadian coins, with a 1/10 oz gold series featuring new depictions of the creatures each year. Today, 2018 1/10 oz Canadian Gold Polar Bear Coins are available from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Polar bears evolved relatively recently in evolutionary terms, diverging from brown bears approximately 400,000 to 600,000 years ago during the Pleistocene epoch. This rapid evolutionary adaptation occurred as some brown bear populations became isolated in Arctic environments during ice ages. Genetic studies reveal that polar bears developed their specialized Arctic features through natural selection pressures, transforming from omnivorous forest dwellers into highly specialized marine predators perfectly suited for life on sea ice.
All 2018 1/10 oz Canadian Gold Polar Bear Coins offered here are available with protective plastic flips. The coins boast radial lines throughout the entire obverse background and along the rim of the reverse design field.
On the obverse of 2018 Canadian Gold Polar Bear, you will find a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is shown here in the fourth and final effigy of her reign, with the right-profile relief depicting the Queen without a crown. This portrait was created in 2003 by Susanna Blunt.
The reverse side of the 2018 1/10 oz Gold Polar Bear Coin features a depiction of a massive polar bear walking along an Arctic ice sheet. These bears depend entirely on sea ice as a platform for hunting seals, making their distribution closely tied to seasonal ice formation and the health of Arctic marine ecosystems.
