Alberta-born Stan Witten studied art and engraving under the direction of the Dutch artist John Vandenbrink, where his true passion for this discipline began to flourish. In 1990, Mr. Witten joined the Royal Canadian Mint and began the inhouse apprenticeship programme which he completed in 1994. Now a senior engraver, he has designed a number of Canadian coins including the 2001 $300 Harlequin Ducks Platinum Coin and the 2003 SML Coloured Maple Leaves Coin. Mr. Witten's sculpture and design work can also be seen on the general circulation coinage of Uganda.
