From Canada's Northwest Territories comes a natural wonder that has fascinated humanity for thousands of years - diamonds! This fine silver collectable coin celebrates this natural wonder and the cold, northern landscape in which these Canadian gemstones are mined, enhanced using a colourful, hologram effect. The gem of all gems, diamonds had always been associated with the kimberlite craters found in South Africa and Russia, and in 1991, Canada's Northwest Territories. Virtually overnight, Canada rose to the heights of the diamond industry, its first mines unearthing some of the finest gems the world had ever seen.
