| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a richly engraved nocturnal forest composition unified across the puzzle set, with selective black rhodium plating concealing portions of the design to evoke a night-time atmosphere. On this piece, representing the waning crescent Moon phase, the rhodium treatment reveals a crescent lunar form within the composition. A little brown bat (Myotis lucifugus), a characteristic Canadian twilight species, is depicted in flight amid the engraved woodland setting. The interplay between the polished silver and the matte black rhodium plating creates a striking visual contrast that emphasizes the lunar and wildlife motifs central to the series. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Moon Phases series from the Royal Canadian Mint uses selective black rhodium plating to create the darkened sky field — a technically demanding process that requires precise masking during the plating stage to preserve the polished relief of the lunar surface itself. Rhodium, a platinum-group metal, is applied in extremely thin deposits measured in microns; too heavy a coat obscures fine detail, too light and the contrast fails entirely.
KM#3593–3599 spans seven coins, each capturing a distinct lunar phase across the synodic cycle. The series was issued under Charles III's effigy following his accession after Elizabeth II's death in September 2022 — his first appearance on Canadian collector coinage of this type.
