Description
This unique 2020 $50 fine silver coin from the Royal Canadian Mint combines innovation with the beauty of a real Canadian mined diamond. A diamond’s cut shapes the sparkle that makes it an everlasting symbol of love burning bright. Nowhere is this more evident than with this extraordinary coin, which is both shaped like a diamond and includes a real inset .20 carat Forevermark Black Label diamond. The diamond is one of the last to be extracted from the Victor Mine in Northern Ontario. The shaped coin has a weight of about three ounces of fine silver. Adding to its collectability, the mintage is extremely limited to just 700. HST/GST exempt.
The Design:
The coin’s shape and multi-faceted design are an exact reproduction of a patented trademark diamond cut from seen on Forevermark diamonds. On one of the coin’s crown side facets, an embedded 0.20 ct. Forevermark Black Label square diamond is the inspiration for the shape of its coin base. On the other crown side facets, the year “2020”, the word “CANADA” and the face value “50 DOLLARS” surround the obverse engraved on the table, which features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
