Canadian Silver Maple Leaf coins were introduced in 1988, almost a decade after the Canadian Maple Leaf coin series was introduced in 1979 in a gold version. The silver coin is one of the most popular in the world, with 29 million minted and sold in 2014.
The Royal Canadian Mint uses the same image of the iconic sugar maple leaf on the reverse of the coin each year. As of 2015, new security features have been introduced on the reverse to combat counterfeiting. Using micro-laser engraving, the RCM added radial lines and a small, repeating maple leaf image below the primary design set.
On the reverse face of the 2016 Canadian Silver Maple Leaf is the image of the sugar maple leaf, with the engraving “Canada” above, the coin’s purity (9999) on either side of the leaf, and the metal content and weight of the coin.
The obverse bears Susanna Blunt’s depiction of Queen Elizabeth II. Blunt’s portrait of Her Majesty is the third-generation image featured on Canadian coins, and was introduced in 2004 after its creation in 2003.
Each of the 2016 Canadian Silver Maple Leaf coins in this product listing has a Brilliant Uncirculated condition. Coins in BU condition have no signs of wear and tear, but may feature breaks in the luster, spotted surfaces, or contact marks from striking.

Monster box order arrived to NYC in less the 30 hours! Touchdown!
The 2017 Coins are beautiful and have anti counterfeiting properties so this is my preferred stacking choice. Packaging was well done as well.

STEPHEN from OH–
The pictures don’t do this coin justice. It is absolutely beautiful in person! It is much shinier than the pic leads you to believe.

Just now received 10 and they’re in a Mint Tube as a bonus. They were scheduled to be delivered two days from now. I am impressed! As usual JMB is the absolute best!
William from NY–
Great security features with reeded edge and security lines radiating out to edge from center point on both obverse and reverse. The Maple Leaf is a classic icon of Canada and the face value of 5 Canadian Dollars is higher (at current forex ratios) than all other face values of the major silver coins. Nice new rendition of the Queen as she has aged some since last rendition. Cannot go wrong with government issued silver coinage at a great price!

Excellent dealer

I ordered a few of the Maple Leafs when they were on sale. This is a great looking coin and super easy to do business with JMB
Brenda from AZ–
Ordered 3 tubes when they were on sale. Easy to order. Status of my order was readily available. Paid by check. JMB says they’ll hold your check for up to 6 business days, and they held it for 6. The check cashed a week earlier (funds withdrawn from my account), so I was hoping for a shorter hold but didn’t get it. But it was as advertised, so I can’t complain about that. Tubes were packaged with care. Overnight free shipping due to the size of my order. Opened 1 tube and the Maples were in perfect shape. And as to the product, Maples are the purest silver coin (.9999) you can buy, from a government mint, have a currency value of $5 Canadian versus $1 US for the American Eagle, are almost always cheaper than the AE, and in my opinion, are the nicest coin out there. Can’t go wrong with these folks. And for the numismatic, the privys are sweet, the variety is great, and the security features are nice too. The US better wake up and start providing a competitive product. AEs are boring.

These are bright, brilliant coins. I bought some tubes of these when they were on sale. You just can’t go wrong with Maple Leaves or JMB!
