On the obverse of these coloured coins is Marc Chagall's fresco for the ceiling of the main auditorium of the Garnier opera house, commissioned by André Malraux and inaugurated in 1964. The central medallion on the coin is not usually visible to visitors to the Palais Garnier, as it is hidden by the great chandelier that lights up the auditorium. The reverse depicts Jules-Eugène Lenepveu's 1872 work LesMusesetlesheuresdujouretdela nuit. The face value of the coin and the name "République Française" (French Republic) appear in the centre of the composition, in the style and position of the grille that once supported the large chandelier. For each composition, the décor surrounding the work is a reproduction of the mouldings that adorn the real ceiling. The name of each artist and the year in which the work was presented are inscribed on these ornaments.

Created by former intelligence officer and author Ian Fleming in 1953, James Bond is a fearless, charismatic and deadly British Secret Service agent with a ‘licence to kill’. Also known by the codename 007, he has been portrayed by six actors – Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig – in 25 thrilling movies released by EON Productions since 1962.
In Live And Let Die, released in 1973, Bond investigates Dr. Kananga, a Caribbean Prime Minister intent on dominating the heroin trade. Played by Roger Moore, 007 pursues Mr. Big, the corrupt official’s alter ego, exposing himself to vicious assassins and voodoo magic. But the agent’s persistence pays off when Kananga’s inflated ambitions are dramatically blown to pieces.
The coin’s reverse depicts James Bond, the charismatic Secret Service agent. Based on an official movie poster, the design also represents a tarot card and a fiery explosion. Included on the reverse are the iconic gun barrel graphic from the franchise’s signature opening sequence, the famous 007 gun logo and the inscription ‘LIVE AND LET DIE’ featuring a knife symbol.
Individual releases from the James Bond Official 25-Coin Collection are each housed in a 007 branded case with a transparent acrylic top and a movie themed shipper. Each coin is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity featuring poster artwork

The stargazers of ancient Greece referred to it as zodiakos kyklos, the “circle of animals,” and on this 99.99% pure silver coin from the Royal Canadian Mint, the artistic representation of the Zodiac was partly inspired by the marble statues of the Classical period. Running counter clockwise in zodiacal order around the Sun and Moon, each of the 12 signs of the Zodiac – from Aries (“1”) to Pisces (“12”) – is represented by a classical figure in the outer circle and a corresponding glyph in the inner portion, while touches of celestial colours speak to humanity’s fascination with the night sky.
Enhanced with selective colour, the reverse design by artist Steve Hepburn features an engraved celestial illustration of the Sun and Moon surrounded by the 12 signs of the Zodiac. Inspired by classical Greek sculpture, the figures representing each sign on the outer circle are paired with their corresponding glyph in the second band, which is set against a colourful night sky, and these are numbered based on their zodiacal order (beginning at the top and moving in a counterclockwise direction): Aries (“1”), Taurus (“2”), Gemini (“3”), Cancer (“4”), Leo (“5”), Virgo (“6”), Libra (“7”), Scorpio (“8”), Sagittarius (“9”), Capricorn (“10”), Aquarius (“11”) and Pisces (“12”). The obverse features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. The obverse also bears a special marking that includes four pearls symbolizing the four effigies that have graced Canadian coins and the double date of her reign.

“Next time you’re checking out the astrology section in your paper or online, remember that the earliest recorded horoscope dates back to the 4th century BCE in ancient Mesopotamia—this should give you some perspective on our enduring fascination with astrology. With their deep symbolic meaning and unique characters, the signs of the zodiac are a wonderful subject for any artist to work with. This was a fun project to be a part of, and that I’ll never look at the daily horoscope section the same way again!”
