Description
The Royal Canadian Mint’s Silver Maple Leaf is one of the most widely held silver bullion coins in the world, and the 2026 issue carries the security features that set it apart.
The reverse shows the single maple leaf that has defined the coin since 1988. The obverse bears the effigy of King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
Each coin is struck from one troy ounce of 99.99% pure silver, with radial lines, a micro-engraved maple leaf privy mark showing ’26’ under magnification, and Bullion DNA anti-counterfeiting technology. The Mint’s MINTSHIELD surface protection helps reduce the white spotting that can appear on silver over time.
Canadian legal tender with a $5 face value, and GST-free in Australia.
