Canada’s expansive forests, covering nearly 40% of the nation’s land, are a vibrant tapestry of diverse tree species like the eastern sugar maple and balsam fir. These natural treasures not only shape our landscapes but also our national identity, inspiring the innovative “heart of the forest” pulsating field pattern on the new 1 oz. 99.99% pure silver coin. This coin features an ultra-high relief Silver Maple Leaf, with mist-shrouded trees that appear and disappear as you tilt the coin. Returning for 2024, the ultra-high relief Silver Maple Leaf coin is a favorite among collectors, crafted with exceptional detail that brings the forest to life. This latest edition adds an ethereal depth to the design, with trees struck in varying depths that create an illusion of an endless forest. This coin is limited to 8,000 pieces globally and includes a serialized certificate from the Royal Canadian Mint, making it a coveted collectible.

Lake Louise in Extraordinarily High Relief. Beginning in late spring, Victoria Glacier’s meltwater carries silt or rock flour (fine-grained particles of rock) into Lake Louise, where these particles stay suspended in the water-in fact, the lake’s vivid colour is caused by sunlight reflecting off these particles. If you’re hoping to see those turquoise waters in person, you’ll want to time your visit carefully. A sunny day is best but the waters also need to have a high concentration of suspended rock flour particles. Peak time is July and August, when glacial run-off is at its highest; September and early October are also good times to visit, but the colour fades as the silt settles and meltwater tapers off. Turquoise waters, snow-capped mountains and unparalleled alpine scenery-the beauty of Lake Louise is legendary, and this fine silver coin celebrates all the geographic elements that make it one of Canada’s great treasures! Never before has the Canadian landscape been rendered so realistically as on this coin’s reverse. Its design features an overhead view of the Lake Louise area, and while Extraordinarily High Relief (EHR) technology sends the Canadian Rockies soaring to new heights, beautiful Lake Louise is unmissable thanks to coloured enamel that highlights the crown jewel of Banff National Park. With a limited mintage of 3,000, this coin is sure to sell out quickly. Order yours today from Colonial Acres Coins! Based on elevation modelling, the coin’s reverse features Extraordinarily High Relief (EHR) technology that adds height to this realistic rendering of the terrain surrounding Lake Louise in Banff National Park (Alberta), in the Canadian Rockies. Glaciers and mountain peaks are frosted to create a silvery snow-capped effect. Lake Louise is struck incuse and filled in with translucent colour enamel that mimics its famous turquoise waters. Inspired by topographic maps, contour lines form a field pattern that frames the reverse and continues on the obverse, which features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. The coin comes encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell with a black beauty box. Citadel Coins Halifax, Nova Scotia Official Royal Canadian Mint Distributor.
