“I told them it might be nice for the artist to have one of them and they agreed,” he said with a laugh. The coin, weighing in at just over 31 grams and released for sale this week, features a shining sun surrounded by two engraved pairs of bighorn sheep across its 30-millimetre surface. Two of the sheep are enhanced with brightly coloured backgrounds, while two others have been finished in gold. The coin, called Ramming Bighorn Sheep, also sports a ring of mountain peaks that frame the battling sheep. The sheep also feature the eagle crest representing Hunt’s home village of Fort Rupert and the raven crest of his father, Henry Hunt, on their hooves.
