The Design:
This coin features Walter Ott’s now-iconic sugar maple leaf design, unchanged since the first Silver Maple Leaf (SML) coin was issued in 1988. Blackrhodium plating fills the field and enhances the natural shine of the coin’s silver surface, which is only visible on the engraved relief. The reverse includes the engraved words “CANADA” and “FINE SILVER 2 OZ ARGENT PUR”, as well as the purity standard of “9999”. The black rhodium-plated obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt, along with the engraved face value “10 DOLLARS” and the year “2019”.
