Where it came from
The 2011 three-dollar coin featuring the December birthstone, zircon, was part of the Royal Canadian Mint's popular Birthstones series. These coins were created to offer collectors a personalized, semi-precious alternative to standard bullion, blending legal tender status with the tradition of birthstone-themed jewelry. The design reflects the Mint's focus during this period on using Swarovski crystals to enhance the visual appeal of their commemorative numismatic products.
The coin features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II designed by Susanna Blunt, which has been the standard portrait on Canadian coinage since 2003. The reverse side, showcasing the floral emblem associated with the month and the embedded zircon, was crafted by the Mint's internal design team. It was received primarily by gift-givers and hobbyist collectors who valued the series for its consistency in aesthetic style and its celebration of personal milestones.
