The selective use of blue rhodium plating colourfully complements the reverse proof finish, without obscuring the engraved ripples that convey movement in the water. While this visual effect is limited to the 1 oz.

The highly detailed, engraved image captures a tranquil moment in the Canadian landscape, whose seasonal beauty is arguably at its peak. Carried by the autumn breeze, several sugar maple leaves have tumbled down from the forest canopy overhead, their edges slightly curled, before gently resting on the water. Coin, blue rhodium plating adds a colourful reflective hue to the aquatic setting, without obscuring the engraved ripples that convey movement across the water.
