In 2011 the Royal Canadian Mint released a very special Limited Issue Swarovski Crystal Snowflake $20 Twenty Dollar Silver Proof Coin struck in solid .9999 Silver weighing one ounce of pure silver with Emerald Green Swarovski Crystals.
The reverse designed Konrad Wachelko depicts a Crystal Snowflake with Emerald Green Swarovski Crystals set in the coin while the obverse features a portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
These legal tender coins have been struck to proof quality using specially prepared dies and highly polished blanks.
