The 2009 $20 Silver Summer Moon Mask Coin comes presented in a dark red clamshell-shaped case lined with flock and secured by a black sleeve. It is made of 99.99% pure silver. The design is based off of an original red cedar mask carved by the Canadian artist Jody Broomfield of the Squamish Nation. It was minted as 10,000 proof coins having a diameter of 38mm and weighing 31.39 grams each.

Although these masks are created by modern hands, they preserve the vision that was established by the artist's ancestors centuries ago. They are a unique bridge to the spirit world with a sacred power that transcends time and seen through the eyes of magic.
It's a grand sight on a summer's eve; a full moon emerging just over the horizon like an immense glowing ball, the largest it will be all year. Today, science and technology can prove the moon's great size is just an illusion, a playful deception perhaps, but one that still takes our breath away. Imagine how this sight must have captivated people in historic times. Throughout the world, the moon was a mystery as it would wax and wane, then disappear completely for a time.
