2017 $3 Zodiac Series: Aquarius – Pure Silver Coin

This exquisite 2017 $3 proof fine silver coin is an integral part of the captivating Zodiac Series, featuring dazzling Swarovski® crystal embellishments within a beautifully colour-over-engraved rendition of the zodiac. Following a detailed tradition rooted in Hellenic and Babylonian civilizations, the zodiac continues to fascinate astrology enthusiasts and collectors alike.

With a denomination of $3 and a weight of just over one quarter ounce of pure silver, this coin is not only a good addition to any precious metal collection but also represents a piece of cultural history. The limited mintage of only 5,500 coins enhances its appeal to collectors and investors looking for unique and rare items.

The Design:

The reverse design, crafted by Pandora Young, showcases a stunning blend of colour and engraving, resulting in an artistic portrayal of the zodiac. A clear Swarovski® crystal is elegantly aligned with the zodiac symbol for Aquarius (January 20–February 18), complemented by a larger violet Swarovski® crystal representing the characteristics of intelligence, creativity, and progressiveness of those born under this Air sign. The obverse features the esteemed effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
