Crafted from one gramof gold, the maple leaf features an incomparable amount of details-from the etched veins to the slightly curled edges that evoke memories of a fall day.

Crafted from one gram of 18-karat gold, the maple leaf adds a sense of elegance, dimension and realism-especially its natural golden hue, which is in keeping withthe sugar maple’s fall colours. Its deeply etched veins are prominent while its pointed edges areslightly bent, evoking the shape of a fallen leaf coming to rest on an engraved bed of classically stylized maple leaves. Behind it, the use of frosted and proof finishes fill the field to re-create the bands of Canada’s national flag, as a visual representation of soaring pride for this nation’snatural legacy. The reverse also features the engraved word “CANADA” and the face value “30 DOLLARS”. The obverse features the effigyof Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. 99.99% pure silver.
