Reaching outward from the strong, firmly rooted tree, the sugar maple leaf (Acer saccharum) is a universally recognized token of all things Canadian. Magnificently captured here on this

5 oz

pure gold coin, the maple leaf’s resilience and distinctive appearance make it a fitting ambassador to the world, but it also reminds of the natural beauty of Canada. On the reverse, Canadian artist Margaret Best presents a timeless portrait of a true Canadian icon. The mirror-like gleam of the coin’s surface mimics the sun’s golden rays and evokes all the warmth of a summer day. In the centre, two sugar maple leaves gently overlap, their stems naturally pointing outward from the single branch. The larger leaf in the foreground allows for a more detailed rendering of its features, which have been precisely engraved to give the artistic design an enhanced sense of depth and realism. The coin shows the value 500 Dollars, the purity level 9999 AU, the word Canada, the year 2017 and the weight 5 oz. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
