2020 Canada 1/4 oz Silver $5 Birthstones: August

0.2500 troy oz .9999 2020 Proof

A stunning monthly series that combines complex engraving, selective color and a gem-toned crystal for a sparkling celebration of each birth month. Each coin features a genuine Swarovski® crystal that represents each month’s birthstone and its color. Although peridot is one of the few gems to occur in just one color, its green hue may vary from yellow-green to olive. This birthstone symbolizes strength and power. It also brings friendship, influence and protection to those born in August. Flanked by three smaller Swarovski® crystals and surrounded by a Celtic art-inspired design, the colorful Swarovski® crystal at the center is a token of good fortune—not just in your birthday month, but for the whole year.
