Canada 3 dollars October Tourmaline Birthstones PR 70 PCGS silver coin 2011

The Canada 3 Dollars October Tourmaline Birthstone silver coin issued in 2011 is a refined and expressive piece from Canada’s Birthstones series, celebrating the October birthstone through rich color and elegant design. This coin combines modern minting artistry with gemstone beauty, appealing to collectors who appreciate symbolism, color, and contemporary numismatic aesthetics.

The reverse features an eye-catching circular composition centered around a faceted tourmaline gemstone set into the coin. The gemstone displays deep pink, magenta, and violet tones, with bright reflective flashes visible across its polished facets. Surrounding the gemstone is a symmetrical arrangement of curved, petal-like silver elements that radiate outward in a swirling formation. These frosted silver shapes resemble a stylized flower or rotating sun motif and contrast strongly against the dark, mirror-like background, creating depth, motion, and a dramatic visual balance.

The obverse presents a finely rendered right-facing profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Her hair is styled in a classic arrangement, and she wears a necklace, all depicted with soft matte textures that stand out against the glossy black field. The relief emphasizes facial contours and refined detailing, reinforcing the coin’s formal and timeless appearance.

Struck in silver with proof quality, this coin is preserved in flawless condition and certified PR70 by PCGS. Issued in 2011, it is an outstanding collectible for birthstone enthusiasts, gemstone lovers, and collectors of modern Canadian decorative numismatics.
