  Each coin to match the patented cut of the 0.23 carat Recently, the Royal Canadian Mint released the Pure Gold Diamond Shaped Coin with De Beers Ideal Cushion Diamond. Embedded on one of the coin’s sculpted facets, the 0.23-carat De Beers Ideal Cushion Cut Diamond and its patented cut inspired this premium collectible’s multi-dimensional shape and facet arrangement.  No other diamond shape rivals the intensity of a cushion cut’s fire.
