This simple yet elegant coin is crafted in honour of the stunning McCausland stained-glass dome in Toronto’s Casa Loma. This coin is part of an exquisite new series by the Royal Canadian Mint, which celebrates the wide-reaching beauty of this artful glass. The representation of stained glass from Casa Loma on this coin is enhanced by translucent glass-like enamel that makes the coin shine and reflect light, alluding to the ethereal light-play that actual stained glass creates. The elegant enamel is hand-filled into individual crevices, mimicking the painstaking task of creating stained glass. The beautiful design, struck into one ounce of fine silver, is sure to bring a smile to the face of any art-lover; it would also make a surprising and elegant addition to any collection of fine silver.
