About the Canadian Silver Maple Leaf Coin
Since its inception in 1988, the Silver Maple Leaf has been updated annually by the Royal Canadian Mint with new proof releases, privy marks, holographic upgrades, and commemorative versions. The Silver Coin’s basic design hasn’t changed much, though, and it still features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and the iconic Maple Leaf, which symbolises Canadian identity and pride, on the other.
It’s interesting to note that although the design on the back of the coin has always been of Her late Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, it has changed ever-so-slightly over time to reflect the Monarch’s age. The designer of the Queen’s embossing has changed a couple of times over the years, with Susanna Blunt being the latest designer for the Royal Canadian Mint and each issue from then till 2022 has featured a slightly more aged Queen. The Queen is an amazing idea for a piece of art, and the finished product shows that.
Features of the Canadian Silver Maple Leaf Coin
On the back of this coin is all the important information that people who are “into” coin collecting need to know. On the back of each Canadian Silver Maple Leaf coin will be the year it was made, the Royal Canadian Mint’s famous sugar maple leaf, the weight in Troy ounces, the purity, and the amount of metal in the coin. All of this is pressed into the obverse side of the coin in a very detailed way.
Since 2014, both gold and silver coins made by the Royal Canadian Mint have had a maple leaf micro-engraved by laser as a security measure and to show that the Royal Canadian Mint made them. Anything that doesn’t have this line is probably a fake that looks like the real thing. Be careful about this when buying from dealers, both online and in person, so you can be sure it’s authentic.
This design from the Royal Canadian Mint will get your attention, whether you are just starting to invest in precious metals or have been doing so for a long time. These coins also make great gifts for family and friends. They come individually wrapped in cushioned flip cases or a tube of 25.
