Description

Maple Leaves Motion is an annual favourite from the Royal Canadian Mint featuring beautiful art and innovation, and it has a history of selling out on launch day.  New for 2023, this $50 five ounce fine silver coin combines ultra-high relief maple leaves set against a laser engraved special effect background that pulsates as the coin is turned in the light.  Mintage is limited to just 2,000 coins.  HST/GST exempt.

 

The Design:

The maple leaf continues to be a powerful representation of Canada’s proudest achievements and key milestones.  Rendered in Ultra High Relief (UHR), the three raised sugar maple leaves truly “pop” against the pulsating background.  This optical effect is produced by an array of sub-millimetre-scale mirrors, which have been micro-engineered and precisely engraved to reflect light in a way that creates the illusion of motion.

 The obverse features a double dated 1952-2022 posthumous effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, set against a simplified continuation of the background special effect pattern behind the maple leaves.
