250 dollars 2022 Pysanka. Symbol of spirituality of Ukraine on a gold coin of Canada.

Coins with portraits of Queen Elizabeth II minted in the UK and Commonwealth realm countries have always been highly valued by collectors and investors. A rare coin minted in the last year of the rule of Queen Elizabeth II in Canada was sold on Violity in the amount of only 250 coins. The coin is made of 9999 gold, weighing 58.5 grams. The first prototypes of Easter eggs that we know come from archaeological finds dating back to the 1st millennium. During the period of the day, the Cossack tradition of making highly artistic Easter eggs reaches its perfect development. The central design element of the 250 Canadian dollar pysanka gold coin is the Tree of Life, an ancient symbol that is an important part of Ukrainian folk art. The image of the "world tree", which unites the world of the living, the underworld of the dead and heaven, is an integral element of the pre-Christian beliefs of the peoples of Europe.
The tree of life for Ukrainians is, first of all, a kind of "tree of the family", combining the past, present and future. The author of the design of the obverse of the gold coin is Dave Melnychuk, a Canadian of Ukrainian origin. It is important to add that this is the last coin of the series with a portrait of Elizabeth II. Coins of subsequent years will be minted with a portrait of King Charles III.
