Product Description
Majestic Maple Leaves with Drusy Stone 2016 $20 1 oz Fine Silver Coin – Royal Canadian Mint
A crystal-encrusted drusy stone captures forever the rich colours of autumn while hinting at the blanket of shimmering snow that will soon arrive! In a world’s first, the Royal Canadian Mint has added a semi-precious drusy stone maple leaf embellishment in the rarest of colours to a beautifully engraved 1-ounce coin of 99.99% pure silver.
SPECIAL FEATURES
- World’s first! Never before has a drusy stone embellishment been included on a coin. Highly sought after in the jewellery market, crystal-encrusted drusy stone makes its global coin debut at the Royal Canadian Mint.
- Only a very small portion of fine crystal drusy quartz has the warm, rich earth used on this low-mintage coin. It is the ideal addition to a richly engraved piece that thematically celebrates the stunning leaves of the Canadian autumn.
- The stone is set within a striking Art Nouveau-inspired design captured in painstaking detail with exquisite engraving and shading.
- Low mintage of only 4,000 means that this coin is sure to be sought after by collectors.
- A unique addition to your Canadiana, nature-themed, or embellished coin collection.
DESIGN
The reverse design by Canadian artist Tony Bianco features a central maple-shaped drusy stone set within a circle of engraved maple leaves. Designed by Mr. Bianco to highlight the autumnal beauty and textural depth of the drusy stone, the dynamic engraved background features a swirling torrent of painstakingly engraved maple leaves. This central image is encircled by Art Nouveau-inspired scrollwork that lends the coin a distinctly jewellery-like feel. The reverse is engraved with the word “CANADA” and the face value of “20 DOLLARS.” The obverse features the date “2016” and the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
