OTTAWA, May 9 (Xinhua) -- The Royal Canadian Mint Wednesday revealed that a commemorative coin for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding is adorned with crystals and Canadian maple leaves.
It is a 99.99 percent pure silver keepsake to celebrate the May 19 wedding at Windsor Castle in Britain. It features an engraved portrait based on one of the couple's engagement photos and has a face value of 20 Canadian dollars (about 16 U.S. dollars).
The coin is edged in maple leaves, English roses and shells from Prince Harry's coat of arms. It also features three Swarovski crystals to represent Markle's three-stone engagement ring.
It costs 104.95 Canadian dollars (roughly 80 U.S. dollars) and can be ordered from the mint's online store. The coin has a limited mintage of 15,000.
The mint said the coins will also soon be available at its stores and some Canada Post outlets and through its network of dealers and distributors.
The commemorative design is by Joel Kimmel. The other side features an effigy of the Queen by Vancouver artist Susanna Blunt.
