This 2025 proof celebrates Italian-Canadian heritage in the Royal Canadian Mint's Celebrating Canada's Diversity series. At the centre is the Stella d'Italia set with a simulated red coral stone, framed by Renaissance-style patterns of oak leaves and olive branches and a ring of Roman-inspired arches that alternate the Italian star with Canadian maple leaves.
It's one troy ounce of 99.99% pure silver with a mintage of 5,500, and comes in its Mint case with certificate and outer box.
