About
The dreamcatcher: Celebrate a timeless symbol of love and protection.
More than a collectible, this 99.99% pure silver coin is a powerful tribute to Ojibwe heritage, brought to life through the artist’s representation of the dreamcatcher tradition. Crafted with deep intentionality, the design focuses on a matriarch—the creator of the dreamcatcher featured here—who is also seen nurturing her child within the form of the soaring Eagle that is a sacred connection to the Creator. From healing florals to wigwams representing community, every engraved element beautifully reflects the Anishinaabe understanding of balance, protection and the interconnectedness of all living things.
Modern artistry rooted in tradition.

The reverse design by Anishinaabe artist Emily Kewageshig features a representation of the dreamcatcher as a symbol of love and protection, with elements reflecting the Anishinaabe worldview that emphasizes interconnectedness. Surrounded by flowers representing healing and wigwams representing community, a matriarch protects her child through the creation of a dreamcatcher, positioned at the top. She is seen nurturing her child within the form of the Eagle, who carries prayers and messages up to the Creator (Gchi Manidoo) and returns with the gifts of peace and harmony. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
In the artist’s words: “Within the design, the matriarch looks over the young child, she heals the child through her gift of creation—the creation of the dreamcatcher. The woman grows beautiful flowers that represent healing and good medicine. The Eagle teaches us about love, and what it means to be strong and honourable. The Eagle is one of the highest-flying birds, it carries our prayers and requests up to the sky to Gchi-Manidoo (the Creator), and in return, brings us peace and harmony. The elements within the design are interconnected: the people, the animals, the trees and plants. The sunrise of the new day brings hope and reminds us that with each new day, we are granted an opportunity to live our best lives and use our teachings in a good way. The symbol and stories of the dreamcatcher will forever live on in the Ojibwe culture.” – Emily Kewageshig, Artist
