Inspired by the silver maple (Acer saccharinum), this kilo coin brings the beauty of its iconic leaf into focus. Basking in the shine of 99.99% pure silver on your coin’s reverse, the large maple leaf radiates pride, its lobes reaching outward in a display of strength and quiet resilience—a heartfelt reflection of Canada’s spirit. Meticulous craftsmanship brings every curve, every serration to life, while the swirl of leaves suspended in the background infuses additional energy and depth.

Maple leaf outlines form a harmonious laser-engraved pattern on the coin’s reverse and obverse, extending the celebration and reinforcing the theme of Canadian pride.
Intricate vein textures mimic the leaf’s veins, while the edges and curves are carefully sculpted to catch the light, inviting a renewed appreciation for the subtle complexities of nature’s shapes.
While the scientific name Acer saccharinum is a nod to the silver maple’s sugar-bearing sap, its common name speaks to the silvery-white undersides of its foliage, which shimmers when stirred by the wind—a stunning effect that inspired this coin design.
The reverse design by artist Nathalie Lagacé features a detailed portrait of a single silver maple (Acer saccharinum) leaf, finely rendered with outstretched lobes. Behind it, maple leaf outlines form a laser-engraved pattern that expresses strength, resilience, and quiet pride. The pattern repeats on the obverse, which features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
La Monnaie royale canadienne est connue pour être l'une des monnaies les plus réputées au monde. La succursale d'Ottawa de la Monnaie royale a ouvert ses portes en 1908 et a été rebaptisée Monnaie royale canadienne en 1931 lorsque le contrôle a été transféré au gouvernement canadien. Ses normes élevées d'excellence et de qualité lui ont permis d'être la première raffinerie à fabriquer des pièces d'investissement en or d'une pureté de 9999 en 1982, ainsi que la première à atteindre une pureté d'or de 99999 en 1998.
