The reverse proof finish places the focus squarely on the brilliant leaf, which is elegantly enhanced by the selective use of rose gold plating-as is the effigy on the obverse.
You get the full effect from the moment you first open the clamshell case! The individually encapsulated coins are packaged together as one, in a recessed insert that keeps all four in place for an easy presentation.

Your coin set is GST/HST exempt with a limited mintage worldwide of only 6,500! This quartet pays tribute to 30 years of history through its creative take on the idea of a fractional set. Each of the four pure silver coins is square-shaped, and features a fraction of a reverse design by Canadian artist Pierre Leduc. When placed together to form a larger square, the four reverse images come together as one: a sugar maple leaf.
, whose likeness has graced the reverse of the Royal Canadian Mint's Silver Maple Leaf (SML) bullion coin since 1988. A reverse proof finish and selective rose gold plating colourfully enhance the elegance and brilliance of the engraved leaf, which is near life-like thanks to the precise rendering of fine details such as the leaf's deeply etched veins. Also engraved on the reverse are the commemorative years "1988" and "2018", the word "CANADA", and a "9999 Ag" purity notation. The obverse features the rose gold-plated effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. 27 mm x 27 mm (each).
