2019 Canadian $10 Maple Leaf - 1/2 oz Fine Silver Coin with outside box

2019 Canadian $10 Maple Leaf - 1/2 oz Fine Silver Coin

Canada’s arboreal emblem, the maple (Acer), is more diverse than the single leaf that adorns our flag. In fact, the official symbol encompasses ten different maple species, with at least one species found in every province—a fact that makes the maple leaf a natural icon for this vast nation. The 2019 edition of our annual maple celebration highlights the beauty of the red maple, Acer rubrum. The brilliant relief adds a splash of summer sunshine to the reverse, where even the smallest engraved detail shines bright against the lined/matte background.

Design

Designed by Pierre Leduc, your coin showcases the peak summer foliage of the red maple (Acer rubrum) tree. Three leaves are shown in an opposite arrangement that fills much of the field. The natural positioning allows for a limited view of the long petioles that secure the two furthest leaves to the twig. Fine engraving stands in for the veins that run through each leaf’s palmate lobes, which are separated by “V”-shaped notches. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth by Susanna Blunt.
