Product Overview

As Canada’s flagship silver bullion coin, the Canadian Silver Maple Leaf has been issued annually by the Government of Canada since 1988.

Renowned for its purity and iconic maple leaf motif, the Silver Maple Leaf combines investment-grade metal content with official mint craftsmanship.

Historical Significance

Authorized in 1988 by the Royal Canadian Mint, the Silver Maple Leaf series cemented Canada’s place in the bullion market with the world’s highest official silver purity. Alongside three core portrait editions, the series has seen numerous commemorative and special releases, underscoring its enduring appeal to investors and collectors alike.

Investment Considerations

Canadian Silver Maple Leafs offer government‑backed purity paired with global market liquidity. Their .9999 fine content commands premium pricing, while legal‑tender status enhances confidence.
