NEW "heart of the forest" pulsating field pattern! Tilt the coin to see mist-shrouded trees come into view. The coin's reverse features Walter Ott's Silver Maple Leaf (SML) bullion design, struck in ultra-high relief.
The raised sugar maple (Acer saccharum) leaf is set against a "heart of the forest" pulsating pattern that showcases Canada's vast forests; by tilting the coin, a unique light play creates the illusion of an endless forest on a misty day, with tall conifers seemingly falling in and out of view. The words "CANADA", "FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR" and the purity standard of "9999" are also engraved on the reverse. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.This collectible is crafted in 1 oz. Of 99.99% pure silver and features ultra-high relief that elevates the engraving on the coin's reverse. This coin emanates the "heart of the forest" and adds a certain ethereal quality to your coin's reverse, where mist-shrouded trees are struck in multiple depths, falling in and out of view and the forest seems to stretch on forever.
The SML's iconic leaf truly stands on your coin's reverse, which features a peak relief height of 1.4 mm-higher than a typical 1 oz. The SML is one of our most popular annual offerings and it tends to sell out quickly.
