The Royal Canadian Mint began striking the Canadian Silver Maple Leaf coin in 1988 and these silver Canadian coins remain the official .9999 silver coin of Canada. Canadian Silver Maple Leaf coins are considered by many silver bullion industry experts as one of the best silver coins you can buy in the physical silver bullion marketplace.

Canadian Silver Maple Leaf Coin features:

  • Guaranteed to have 1 troy ounce of fine silver bullion.
  • Legal tender in Canada with a $5 CAD face value.
  • Fine silver bullion coin with a 9999 fine silver purity.
  • Bought and sold with a price premium above the world’s fluctuating silver spot price.
  • Private silver investment which can be held completely outside of the world’s financial system.
  • Confidentially shipped to your door or to your fully insured non-bank Silver Storage Account.
  • May ship in protective flips, Canadian Mint Tubes of 25, or in sealed Canadian Mint Boxes of 500 coins each.
  • Also eligible for Silver IRA or Silver RSP investments.

 

Over 200,000,000 ounces of Silver Canadian Maple Leaf coins have been purchased by investors and coin collectors around the globe.

The Canadian government guarantees that each Canadian Silver Maple Leaf coin contains .9999 fine silver bullion with its explicit 1 troy ounce weight struck on this silver coin in both English and French. Canada’s Royal Canadian Mounted Police enforces the government’s Canadian silver Maple Leaf coin guarantee.

 

Silver Maple Leaf Coin Prices

Canadian Silver Maple Leaf coin prices are heavily influenced by the world’s fluctuating silver spot price.

When physical silver bullion supplies cannot properly meet silver bullion investor demand, the price premiums per Silver Maple Leaf coin over the silver spot price can increase sharply. For example, in the fall of 2008 during the Financial Crisis, the bullion industry suffered a silver coin shortage which resulted in some Silver Maple Leaf coin price premiums to spike +40% over the then fluctuating silver spot price.

These official Canadian silver bullion coins also have low legal tender face values when compared to their precious metal content price. A low legal tender face value helps assure these .9999 fine silver coins do not actively circulate nor compete with Canada’s current fiat currency, the Canadian dollar.

In terms of overall sales volumes, the Canadian Silver Maple Leaf coins are the 2nd most popular silver bullion coins currently minted by a government (the US Mint’s American Silver Eagle Coin is #1 most popular).

 

Higher Silver Coin Prices when You are Selling

Canadian Silver Maple Leaf coins demand some of the silver bullion industry’s highest silver coin prices when sold to a silver coin dealer (the price silver bullion coin dealers are bidding or buying these 1 oz Canadian silver coins back from investors).

In general, silver dealers like Kitco Metals pay a price premium per ounce over the fluctuating silver spot price when buying Canadian Silver Maple Leaf coins back from individual investors.

 

Higher Silver Coin Prices when You are Buying

Canadian Maple Leaf 1 oz Silver Coins also demand some of the highest silver selling prices amongst other competing government silver coins or silver bullion bars. Even in tranquil and nonvolatile markets, it is quite common to see Silver Maple Coins sell for double digit premiums (+10%) over the world’s fluctuating silver spot price.

In summation, Canadian Silver Maple Leaf coin prices per ounce will usually be both slightly higher when your (1) buying and (2) selling them than compared to other less popular silver coins, silver rounds, or silver bullion bars.

 

Canadian Silver Maple Leaf Coin Design

The Canadian Silver Maple Leaf coin’s front features the familiar right-profile portrait of Queen ELIZABETH II. Her Majesty’s effigy is accompanied by engravings of her name, the year of coin mintage, and the Canadian legal tender $5 CAD face value of this .9999 fine 1 oz silver coin.

The back face or reverse of a Silver Canadian Maple Leaf coin features the iconic Canadian Maple Leaf as well as the explicit stamping of ‘9999 FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR 9999’ (written in English and French respectively).

 

Fake Silver Coin Protection with Anti-Counterfeit Designs

For bullion investors concerned about receiving authentic physical silver bullion items, the Canadian Silver Maple Leaf coin is perhaps the most highly recognized and trusted silver coin in the bullion industry today.

In 2014, the Royal Canadian Mint introduced micro laser engravings on their popular Silver Maple Leaf coins. On the reverse or back of the modern bullion Silver Maple Leaf coin you can now find a miniature micro-engraved maple leaf symbol below the larger more obvious maple leaf stamping. With magnification one can better see that struck within the center of this mini maple leaf marking, a two-digit number illustrates the coin’s 21st Century year of issuance. For example the first year this anti-counterfeit fake silver protection measure was put into place, the number ‘14’ was stamped in this mini maple leaf feature to illustrate the coin’s 2014 year of mintage making counterfeit attempts even more difficult.

Also from the year 2014 onwards, the Canadian Mint added micro-radial lines to the backgrounds of both sides of this official Silver Maple Leaf coin. This also makes successful counterfeiting less likely due to the coin striking precision required to duplicate the fine taper micro lines running throughout this Canadian silver coin’s obverse and reverse backgrounds.

Finally the Royal Canadian Mint also recently introduced their unique Bullion DNA Anti-Counterfeiting Technology to combat fake silver and counterfeit silver coins.

The Bullion DNA program (Digital Non-destructive Activation) at the Canadian Mint makes sure every Silver Maple Leaf coin is engraved with a textured maple leaf mark. This mark is then micro-engraved with laser technology. This micro-engraving is then scanned and recorded at the Canadian Mint. Investors can then use the Canadian Mints Bullion DNA reading product to scan their Silver Maple Leaf coins minted 2015 and later. This scanning will compare the original silver coin’s mark scanned in the Canadian Mint’s database to let the user know if the silver coin is indeed authentic or not.

All these unique cutting edge bullion industry security features make Silver Maple Leaf coins perhaps the best silver coin to buy.
