The Silver Maple Leaf is issued annually by the Government of Canada.  Introduced by 1988 by the Royal Canadian Mint, there have been three subsequent standard editions and several special editions.  

The Silver Maple Leaf’s obverse (front) displays the profile of Queen Elizabeth II.  Elizabeth II, the denomination and also the year appear on the obverse of the coin.  There have been subsequent versions of the Queens’ profile;  1988-1989, portrait by Arnold Machin, 1990-2003, Dora de Pedery-Hunt and from 2004 to present by Susanna Blunt.  The Silver Maples Leaf reverse displays the Canadian Maple Leaf.  The reverse displays the phrases CANADA and FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR.  The design has remained unchanged since 1988.  

Samples of the Silver Maple Leaf often carry a blemish that has a milky white appearance, called a milk spot.  This happens when a cleaning agent is left on the coin when it goes into annealing furnace.  The issue was was addressed in 2018 with the RCM introducing “MINTSHIELD” surface protection technology to prevent milk spots.  The Silver Maple Leaf was originally packaged in Mylar.  Since 2009, due to increasing demand, it is packaged in semi-transparent tubes of 25 with a yellow lid with the RCM logo.
