Celebrating Canada's Diversity: Transcendence and Tranquility
An exclusive gold coin featuring a genuine turquoise was issued by the Royal Canadian Mint in 2024 in Proof quality of the purest 99.99% gold, weighing 1 Oz (31.16 g). The processing of the coin brings the fifth tribute to the cultural diversity of the Canadian nation. Through decorative elements drawn from the art of ancient Persia, it composes a subtle design with a message of transcendence and peace, referencing the roots of Iranian Canadians.
The coin's centrepiece is blue turquoise, which as a highly prized gemstone has found prominence in Iranian art and decorative architecture. The natural gemstone in each coin is a unique specimen and as such exhibits a completely distinctive hue or annealing.
The reverse of the coin was designed by Iranian-born Canadian artist Soheila Esfahani, whose work, for example, explores ornaments as a means of transmitting cultures between nations. For the design of the coin, she uses patterns adorning objects that immigrants have brought with them to their new homes. The turquoise in the center of the coin surrounds an oriental "paisley," known here as a cashmere pattern. This is followed by a floral ring of lotus flowers and maple leaves, symbols of Canada. The floral motifs "Shah Abbasi" and "Eslimi" are based on traditional Persian carpets. The choice of lotus is inspired by the relief decoration in Persepolis, the ancient city of ancient Persis. The Proof design is enhanced by the characteristic turquoise colouring and the elaborate lines of the embossing. The motif is marked by the initials of the artist "SKE".
The obverse bears a portrait of Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt accompanied by the reign of the monarch "1952 .... 2022". The four pearls incorporated into the year symbolizes the four likenesses of the monarch that have adorned Canadian coins. The description of the coin lists the inscriptions "ELIZABETH II", "CANADA 2024", "D.G.REGINA" and the face value "200 DOLLARS".
The coin comes in a gift box along with a numbered certificate of authenticity, in a limited edition of 275 pieces for the entire world!
