| Additional information |
Part of the Royal Canadian Mint's ongoing birthstone series, the September entry corresponds to sapphire — a stone historically associated with the British Crown Jewels and, by extension, a recurring motif in Canadian commemorative programs tied to the monarchy. These are collector-market pieces issued at a premium over melt with no circulation intent whatsoever, produced in limited mintages and sold directly through RCM retail channels.
The .9999 fineness is notably purer than standard sterling and reflects the RCM's consistent benchmark for its bullion and collector silver series since the 1990s.
