Each 2025 Proof 60^th Anniversary of the Canadian Flag Gold Maple Leaf 4-Coin Set comes with a beautiful, wooden presentation box shaped like a sugar maple leaf.

Prior to the adoption of the modern Canadian national flag, Canada used the Canadian Red Ensign, which displayed the British Red Ensign with the Canadian coat of arms in the fly. The maple leaf design was chosen after a national contest, as it was seen to represent Canada's identity distinct from its British colonial origins.

The obverse of each coin in the 2025 Proof 60^th Anniversary of the Canadian Flag Gold Maple Leaf Set comes with Arnold Machin’s effigy of a young Queen Elizabeth II. This early portrait of Her Majesty was the second-generation effigy during her reign and debuted in 1965, the same year Canada adopted its modern flag.

On the reverse of the coins in the 2025 Canadian Flag Gold Maple Leaf Set feature an iconic sugar maple leaf designed by Joel Kimmel. The coins all feature the same maple leaf on the reverse, but the 1 oz gold coin stands out with its colorized red maple leaf, honoring one of the primary colors from the Canadian national flag. This side also includes the commemorative double date of 1965-2025.
