Wings spread, bill lowered and emerald feathers reflected in the water: the Green Kingfisher is captured at the decisive instant of its dive. Selective colour follows the bird’s richly textured plumage, while fine silver lines trace the ripples, reeds, rocks and overhanging branches around it. The reflection extends the composition towards the rim, turning a fleeting hunting movement into a carefully balanced wildlife portrait.
Native to the Americas, from southern Texas through Central and South America, the Green Kingfisher hunts small fish and aquatic prey along rivers, streams and wetlands. Its compact shape, white markings and long pointed bill give this design its distinctive character. Issued for Ascension Island in 2026, the 1oz .999 silver Proof combines coloured plumage with a finely detailed silver landscape, with a mintage of 1,000. The feather-patterned presentation box and certificate complete a piece centred on movement, colour and close observation. Pause at the water’s edge with FORTYMILLION.
