Pricing & Liquidity

During periods of elevated physical silver demand or supply constraints, premiums for government-minted silver coins such as the Maple Leaf can increase.
Because of their purity, recognition, and consistent demand, Silver Maple Leaf coins are generally easy to buy and sell through established bullion dealers.
Design & Security Features
The obverse of the Silver Maple Leaf features the official effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, along with the year of issue and face value. The reverse displays the iconic Canadian maple leaf, with inscriptions confirming weight and purity in both English and French.
To protect against counterfeiting, the Royal Canadian Mint has implemented industry-leading security features, including:
- Precision radial lines on both sides of the coin
- A micro-engraved maple leaf mark with a laser-engraved year indicator (introduced in 2014)
- Bullion DNA™ anti-counterfeiting technology, allowing authorized verification of modern Silver Maple Leaf coins
- MINTSHIELD™ surface protection, designed to reduce the appearance of milk spots
These features make the Silver Maple Leaf one of the most secure silver bullion coins in global circulation.
