The 2023 release of The Royal Canadian Mint celebrates its 35th year striking the iconic Silver Maple Leaf coins with a special marking featuring four pearls representing the four effigies of Queen Elizabeth II, symbolizing her magnificent reign.
Since 2018, every Silver Maple Leaf bullion coin comes equipped with the innovative MINTSHIELD™ Surface Protection, the world's only proven method for substantially reducing the appearance of white spots or "milk spots" on Silver bullion coins.
Silver Maple Leaf Series
Collectors value these renowned Canadian coins for their valuable .9999 fine Silver content. The colored maple leaves boast a rich and precious Silver composition, with a brilliant surface that enhances their captivating appearance. The series introduced a distinctive privy mark in 1988, featuring a maple leaf motif, which remains a consistent part of the design over the years. Despite various commemorative versions with different designs, the iconic Canadian maple leaf remains the prominent and timeless feature.
The Royal Canadian Mint's Security Features
Since 2015, The Royal Canadian Mint has employed the Bullion DNA program, offering the highest level of security for bullion coins. Each coin includes a textured maple leaf security privy mark, meticulously micro-engraved using laser technology, visible only under magnification. Additionally, two digits representing the coin's production year get etched into the maple leaf security mark. To verify authenticity, the security mark can be easily scanned with a decoding device. Alongside this advanced security feature, every Silver Maple Leaf bullion coin minted from 2019 onwards incorporates the MINTSHIELD™ Surface Protection, ensuring the coins retain their pristine appearance for years to come.
