This  anniversary edition of the popular Silver Maple Leaf  features a unique design to commemorate the Royal Canadian Mint’s 25th year of production of the coin series. The iconic maple leaf features a “25″ stamped across it to differentiate this design from the normal Silver Maple Leaf.

The Canadian Maple Leaf is minted by the Royal Canadian Mint since 1988. Obverse shows the typical Canadian Maple Leaf which makes the coin easy to identify. Inverse shows Queen Elisabeth II. The Canadian Maple Leaf is 999.9/1000 pure and is recognised as one of the top investment silver coins worldwide.

Maple Leaf Silver Coin Value

The Maple Leaf silver coin is denominated with $5 and legal tender in the Canadian Currency and Exchange Act as specified in Part 1 of the schedule to the Act. But the Maple Leaf is not viewed as a coin in circulation as the coin is mainly bought by gold investors and numismatists. The real value of the Maple Leaf is founded in the content of pure silver which is 31.10 grams for the 1oz coin.
