Throughout history, it's believed that aquamarine protects seafarers and it's essential in achieving a safe voyage. On top of these, it used as the birthstone of those who are born in the first month of spring: March. It's said to bring hope, calmness, and courage for those who are born in that month.
If you want a birthstone with a twist and is into coin collecting, then this March Birthstone - Pure Silver $5 Coin made with Swarovski® Crystals is a welcome addition to your collection.
It sparkles like the turquoise waters of Lake Louise. Throughout history, aquamarine was believed to protect seafarers and guarantee a safe voyage. For those born in this first month of spring, March's icy blue birthstone is said to bring courage, calmness and hope. Flanked by three smaller Swarovski® crystals and surrounded by a Celtic art-inspired design, the colourful Swarovski® crystal at the centre is a token of good fortune—not just in your birthday month, but for the whole year.
