Comments

The piece is set with a crystal-encrusted drusic stone, whose vivid green is reminiscent of birch foliage when summer is in full swing. This is our second piece featuring a semi-precious drusic stone ornament and an exquisite Art Nouveau-inspired motif.

Packaging
The coin is encapsulated and presented in a burgundy double-shell case adorned with the Royal Canadian Mint logo. The case comes with a black protective box.Automatically translated
