9999 pure silver, the maple leaf coin is one of the few sovereign mint coins struck in such purity. The silver series was introduced in 1988, following the success of the gold series.
The obverse features Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The design has been modified through time. The second design was introduced in 1990 until 2003 and it was created by Dora de Pédery-Hunt. Since 2004 until present, the coin features Susanna Blunt's design.
The reverse displays the Canadian Maple Leaf. The design has remained unchanged since 1988.
However, in 2014, radial lines and micro-engraved laser marks were introduced as security features. In addition, each coin has received an application of the MintShield, the first and only proven solution for reducing unsightly white or "milk" spots on silver bullion coins and a proprietary advancement developed by the Royal Canadian Mint. A wonderful addition to your bullion collection presented to you in brilliant uncirculated condition with certificates of authenticity sourced directly from the Canadian Mint.
