Description
The strong, resilient, and bountiful sugar maple has long been a symbol of Canada. Beloved Acer saccharum, found readily across this land's rugged northeastern forests, has something to offer all year long, from the shade provided by its broad leaves in summer and the glory of its vibrant red, purple, and orange leaves in autumn to the delicious wonder of its sap in springtime, which makes the best maple syrup on the planet.
Each of the five coins in this exceptional commemorative set is 99.99% pure silver. All five coins feature a reverse image by Canadian artist Arnold Nogy showing two overlapping sugar maple leaves on a polished background.
