Canada: 2017 $3 Zodiac Series: Virgo Silver Coin
Finish: Proof
Mintage: 5500
Design: Designed by Pandora Young, your coin features an eye-catching combination of colour and engraving that results in a beautifully artistic rendition of the zodiac. Like the stars and planets in the sky, a clear Swarovski® crystal embellishment is in alignment with a traditional glyph of an "M" with a loop to represent chastity—the zodiac symbol for Virgo (August 23–September 22). At the centre is a larger Swarovski® crystal embellishment; its chartreuse colour also represents those born under the Earth sign known for loyalty, kindness, practicality and hard work. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
Packaging: The coins are encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian maroon clamshell case. It is protected by a black beauty box.
