Start your own collection of Crown Jewels, beginning with this uniquely Canadian brooch.

A gift from the people of Canada, the exquisite Sapphire Jubilee Snowflake Brooch was presented to Queen Elizabeth II in 2017 to mark the 150th anniversary of Canadian confederation and the 65th anniversary of her reign, her Sapphire Jubilee as Queen of Canada.

A one-of-a-kind brooch inspired by a snowflake as a representation of the Canadian Arctic is the first bejewelled piece to be showcased in our exciting new Crown Jewels series. Its likeness is captured on the reverse of this 99.99% pure silver coin, where the rhodium-plated embellishment’s cast elements and royal blue glass stones highlight the beauty and intricacy of the diamond-and-sapphire brooch’s design.

First in a series of precious Crown Jewels.

COIN HIGHLIGHTS

  • The first in the RCM's new Crown Jewels. Coin #1! Start your own collection of cherished Crown Jewels with this new series of embellished coins showcasing the heirloom brooches of the Royal Family.
  • An up-close look at a Canadian royal brooch. The new Crown Jewels series begins with the Sapphire Jubilee Snowflake Brooch, a gift from the people of Canada to Queen Elizabeth II on the 65th anniversary of her reign.
  • Matte proof finish. A matte proof finish (brilliant relief, satin field) allows the brooch to shine bright on your coin’s reverse.
  • A must-have for jewellery lovers. Mintage is limited to 6,500 coins and this one will likely sell out quickly, like previous crown-and tiara-themed coins.
  • Includes serialized certificate. The Royal Canadian Mint certifies all of its collector coins.

PACKAGING

Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a black Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell case with a black beauty box.

COLOURED STONES

For affordable luxury, royal blue glass stones stand in for the precious sapphires that adorn both the royal brooch and our pure gold interpretation of it. These glass stones are paired with cast elements resembling engraved jewels to help re-create the look of the diamond‑and‑sapphire brooch.

RHODIUM PLATING

This representation of the Sapphire Jubilee Snowflake Brooch cast embellishment is rhodium-plated. Its shape highlights the complexity and intricacy of the original piece.

DID YOU KNOW?

Then-Governor General David Johnston presented the Sapphire Jubilee Snowflake Brooch to Queen Elizabeth II during a visit to Canada House in London on July 19, 2017. Designed by Saskatchewan-based jeweller Hillberg and Berk, the brooch was crafted in 18-karat Canadian white gold. It is set with more than 400 diamonds (totalling 4.39 carats) from northern Canada, and 48 Canadian beluga sapphires (totalling 10.19 carats) that were part of a cache discovered in 2002 on Baffin Island.

The coin’s reverse features an interpretation of the Sapphire Jubilee Snowflake Brooch—a gift from the people of Canada to Queen Elizabeth II in 2017 to mark the 65th anniversary of her reign. Shaped like a snowflake, the rhodium-plated embellishment is adorned with royal blue glass stones and marked by cast elements that stand in for the royal brooch’s diamonds and sapphires. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.

ABOUT THE ROYAL CANADIAN MINT

The Ottawa Branch of the Royal Mint opened in 1908 and was renamed The Royal Canadian Mint in 1931 when control was transferred to the Canadian government. Their high standards for excellence and quality allowed them to be the first refinery to manufacture 9999 fine gold bullion coins in 1982, as well as the first to reach 99999 fine gold purity in 1998.
