2015 Canada $20 The Great Lakes: Lake Huron Fine Silver (No Tax)

Interestingly enough, despite it being in the middle of the Great Lakes spatially, Lake Huron was the first explored by the Europeans. The French explorers came up through the Ottawa/French river waterways to Lake Huron before Lake Ontario was first found.

The reverse image features an interpretation of a bathymetry map of Lake Huron replicated by Royal Canadian Mint engravers and highlighted with coloured enamel. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
