Reverse
On the coin's reverse, the engraved design by Canadian artist Anna Bucciarelli features a floral wreath of lily, daffodil and tulip blooms mixed with classical acanthus leaves. The patented Dancing Diamond™ mount allows for a Canadian-sourced FIRE AND ICE™ diamond to beset within an open square at the centre of the coin, where it catches the light with every movement.

Comment
Like a twinkling star held in place by Dancing Diamond™ technology, the Canadian diamond at the heart of this coin catches the light from any angle and flashes its fire with every movement. The diamond on our second Sparkle of the Heart coin is a beautiful expression of a love that lasts forever, of a love that can survive adversity–like spring flowers that bloom even after the harshest winters."Dancing DiamondTM technology has been a very successful component in many pieces of jewellery we create. For this new project with the Mint, we are proud to once again create an embellishment in sterling silver for each coin to hold a Canadian FIRE AND ICE diamond. The most beautiful feature of any Dancing DiamondTM is that your precious gemstone will always twinkle." Giovanni Vaccaro, President, Beverly Hills Jewellers Mfg. Ltd.
"This coin captures the blooming beauty of spring through some of the most beautiful flowers commonly found in Canada." Anna Bucciarelli, Artist
"Our first Sparkle of the Heart coin sold out in less than 10 days! And the movement of the diamond on this coin is quite remarkable." Erica Maga, Product Manager, Royal Canadian Mint
Packaging:
Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell with beauty box and custom certificate.
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the "Sparkle of the Heart" coin is that it features a unique sparkling design element, created using a technique called "sparkle cutting." This technique involves cutting the silver surface of the coin with a special tool to create small, precise grooves that reflect light and give the coin its sparkling appearance. This feature adds an extra layer of beauty and uniqueness to the coin, making it a truly special collector's item.
