Coin Highlights:
The design of the maple leaf coin serves as a tribute to both the history and culture of Canada. Prominently displayed on the reverse of the coin is the eponymous maple leaf. While originally just a reference to the abundant maple trees that the first Canadian settlers encountered, this iconic piece of foliage has come to symbolize many of nation's core beliefs, including peace and tolerance. Arboreal enthusiasts will appreciate the intricate and realistic details of the artwork such as its netted veins and its pointed blades. Engraved beneath the maple leaf are the coin's weight and purity.
Depicted on the obverse side of the coin is another iconic Canadian figure, Queen Elizabeth II. Her effigy reminds viewers of Canada's previous status under British rule, as well as their ongoing allegiance to the royal monarchy. Further emphasizing their loyalty to the British crown is the border of text surrounding her profile, which features her title and the Latin phrase, "D.G. Regina," which means "Queen by the Grace of God."
With its poignant imagery and exceptional craftsmanship, the 2010 Canadian Silver Maple Leaf is a charming piece of currency that speaks to both the pride and heritage of the Canadian people.
