Each coin has been masterfully sculpted to match the patented cut of the 0.23 carat De Beers Ideal Cushion Cut diamond embedded on one of its facets, where the precious stone’s flashes of coloured light add flair to a storied silhouette that is synonymous with royalty and romance.

DID YOU KNOW?

Today’s cushion cut is a modern iteration of the Old Mine cut, the most common shape until the late 19TH century. Yielding squarish stones with a higher crown and a deeper pavilion, the faceting style maximized carat retention and took less time to execute than the modern cushion cut’s 64 facets.

Your coin’s unique shape and multi-faceted design are a reproduction of a patented trademark diamond cut from Crossworks Manufacturing, as seen on De Beers Ideal Cut Diamonds. Embedded on one of the crown main facets, is a 0.23 carat* De Beers Ideal Cushion Cut Diamond. This coin has the added distinction of featuring a piece of Canada’s mining history: its diamond having been sourced from one of Canada’s finest diamond mines. The year “2024” is engraved on another crown main facet, while the word “CANADA”, the denomination of “50 DOLLARS” and the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt appear on the largest facet (the table). The obverse also bears a special marking that includes four pearls symbolizing the four effigies that have graced Canadian coins and the double date of her reign
