Charles M. Schulz said, “all you need is love, but a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt.” Chocolate makes a nice gift, but it’s almost immediately forgotten after Valentine’s Day. If you’re trying to find something a little more substantial than chocolate for your Valentine, look no farther than silver coins in Canada. The Royal Canadian Mint creates coins for all occasions. These three sets about love are a perfect way to demonstrate your love to your Valentine on the holiday and all year long.
2020 Canada $3 Celebration Of Love Fine Silver Coin
This $3-coin is made of pure silver to celebrate your love. There are four types of flowers depicted:
- Zinnias – friendship
- Forget-me-nots – timeless connection
- Daisies – pure admiration
- Cosmos – feelings that run deep
The flip side of the coin, called the obverse, features Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. The coin includes two Swarovski crystals that represent a special bond. It comes in a premium graphic box for a special display.
2016 Canada $10 Celebration of Love Fine Silver Coin
This $10-coin produced in 2016 is a precious coin made of 99.99% pure silver. The design focuses on a pair of doves that can represent any milestone of love, the birth of a baby, a wedding, an anniversary or Valentine’s Day. The coin is enhanced with 5 sparkling Swarovski elements. It comes in a beautiful case for display, but could also be worn as a pendant. It’s a nice complement to the $3-coins.
2018 Celebration of Love
In 2018, the Royal Canadian Mint returned to the $3 face value. This coin features the timeless symbol of love, red roses. Decorated with 3 Swarovski crystals, this coin is a nice gift for anyone you love, whether romantically or affectionately. This coin honours the bonds between parent and child, romantic partners or close friends. It’s an especially perfect gift for Valentine’s Day. The roses on this coin will never fade.
One Coin Could Be the Start of a New Hobby
Coin collecting has never been thought of as an exciting hobby, but there’s more to coin collecting than meets the eye. Coin collecting helps you learn about history, culture and politics. Coins not only have monetary value, but they have historic and artistic values. Susanna Blunt’s depiction of the Queen has graced Canadian currency since 2003. Blunt is an amazing artist in her own right, starting early in a career in art. A collection of quarters over the years would provide different pictures of the Queen. Keep going back and you might even find coins that depict King George VI.
Make Valentine’s Day Special With Coins
Make special plans with your Valentine this year and give a gift of a coin. If you don’t want to give a coin of love, find another themed coin to give your loved one. You’ll find hundreds of topics, from superheroes to birdwatching, on some of the beautifully minted coins at Colonial Acres. Use these coins to commemorate a birth, a birthday, Mother’s Day or first communion. Coins never lose their monetary value, giving the recipient a collection that may gain over time.
Coins are great conversation starters. Many of the most beautiful coins minted by the Royal Canadian Mint depict natural wonders of Canada, the bison, hummingbirds and more. You’ll find coins about music, holidays, babies and history. Give your love a special gift this Valentine’s Day of a coin that will last the years. Start a collection of silver coins for a young one and share a love of coins to keep a relationship open. Shop for coins that let you show off your pride. The 2017 coins that celebrate Canada’s 150th anniversary are interesting pieces that anyone would love. Discover more coins and other gift ideas to give your loved one at Colonial Acres Coins.
