Following on the success of the Royal Canadian Mint's first coin combining colour and crystal applications in 2008, the cherished maple leaf adorned by a glistening drop of water dripping from its surface makes a return with the 2009 $20 Autumn Showers Crystal Raindrop Silver Coin. Celia Godkin, well-known Canadian author and artist, designed the special limited edition coin. No stranger to coin design (she also designed the 2008 Crystal Raindrop coin), Godkin has also penned several books, including the popular children's book Wolf Island. From her home in rural Ontario, Celia has drawn inspiration to render a beautiful colored maple leaf complete with a sparkling raindrop composed of CRYSTALLIZED (TM) – Swarovski Elements falling from it. Swarovski, a name synonymous with crystal beauty for over 100 years, has developed the CRYSTALLIZED (TM) brand. With this new brand, the family run company states they have created the "world's finest loose cut crystal elements." Combining the colorful maple leaf with the reflective crystal, the $20 denominated coin is composed of 99.99% pure silver. A maximum mintage of 10,000 units will be struck, and each coin will ship encapsulated along with a presentation box and a serialized certificate. cheapest
