An amethyst is usually a purple birthstone, although colors can vary from deep violet and even red, to a much lighter lilac or mauve color. Some say the meaning of the amethyst birthstone is that it is related to a balanced mindset. Those who have an amethyst birthstone are said to be quick witted and clear headed. These characteristics may be related to the ancient belief that amethyst protected the wearer from Bacchus, the god of intoxication.
Each of the 12 silver coins in this collectible fine silver coin series features the same mandala style design with Swarovski® crystal.
The Royal Canadian Mint worked with artist Canadian Pandora Young, following the ancient Indian tradition of henna tattoos, called mehndi, to inspire the design.
The 12 points in the lotus represent the 12 months of the year, while the Swarovski® crystal represents the birthstone for each month, beautifully reflecting the different colors delicately painted on this finely minted pure silver collectible coin.
