Discover the delicate beauty of Canadian flora and the artistry of Venetian glass with the 2013 $20 Purple Coneflower and Eastern Tailed Blue Silver Coin. As the third edition in the Royal Canadian Mint’s renowned series, this coin combines exquisite craftsmanship with the timeless allure of nature.
Crafted with 99.99% pure silver and boasting a diameter of 38 millimetres, this coin is a testament to premium quality and precision. Canadian artist Maurice Gervais brings to life the vibrant Purple Coneflower (Echinacea purpurea) with its striking purple petals and red-orange centre. Perched elegantly on the bloom is a hand-crafted Venetian glass Eastern Tailed Blue butterfly, created by the renowned glassmaker Giuliano Donaggio from Murano, Italy. The butterfly’s translucent, dark blue-tinted wings with orange spots are a marvel of detailed glass artistry.
This coin is not only a splendid collector’s item but also a unique gift idea for occasions like birthdays, holidays, graduations, or to celebrate the beauty of spring. It’s a coveted piece for nature enthusiasts, wildflower admirers, and connoisseurs of finely crafted Canadiana. With its low mintage and high demand, as evidenced by the quick sell-out of its predecessors, this coin is a valuable addition to any collection.
• The Venetian glass butterfly is a masterpiece of Murano’s celebrated glass-making tradition, renowned for its vibrant colours and exquisite clarity.
• This coin is part of a prestigious series by the Royal Canadian Mint, featuring unique Venetian glass embellishments.
• Presented in a stunning Proof finish, showcasing frosted elements on a mirror-like background. • Encased in a Royal Canadian Mint branded clamshell case, ensuring its preservation and enhancing its display appeal.
