2022 Canada $200 Purely Brilliant Collection: Forevermark Black Label Cushion Ultra High Relief Pure Gold

Another dazzling diamond showstopper! Resembling a pillow of pure sparkling light, a cushion cut diamond features a rounded square shape that naturally evokes romantic images of yesteryear. That trend-defying, vintage charm is part of its appeal, but so, too, is its abundance of fire—in fact, no other shape rivals the intensity of a cushion cut diamond’s flashes of coloured light. That high fire is evident on this 99.99% pure gold coin’s reverse, where Ultra High Relief (UHR) engraving rises up to surround the 0.23 carat Forevermark Black Label cushion cut diamond that inspired the geometric design.

The coin’s cushion cut diamond comes from the Victor Mine, which was Ontario’s first diamond mine and De Beers’ second mine in Canada. Located in Northern Ontario, the Victor Mine opened in July 2008 and produced roughly 8.1 million carats of diamonds before its closure in 2019.

There’s a reason the cushion cut has an antique feel: it is a modern iteration of the old mine cut, the most common diamond shape until the late 19th century. The historic cutting style, which yielded squarish stones with a higher crown and a deeper pavilion than modern-cut diamonds, maximized carat retention and took less time to execute. One of the most famous diamonds, the Hope Diamond, features an antique cushion cut.

The reverse design by Chris and Rosina Reid of Three Degrees Creative is inspired by the 0.23 carat Forevermark Black Label cushion cut diamond centrepiece. The engraved arrangement is an artistic interpretation of the diamond’s light performance and features rising layers of geometric shapes engraved in Ultra High Relief (UHR). The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
