This is the first 3-ounce reverse gold plated coin! Your coin’s large diameter (55 mm) provides a large canvas for the contemporary design on the reverse, where even the smallest engraved details shine! Gold plating throughout the reverse AND the obverse give this 99.99% pure silver coin the appearance of a gold one. The coin’s silver surface is only visible in the central leaf on the reverse, and the effigy on the obverse! The effect is a stunning contrast—one that greatly emphasizes the geometric-based shapes that give each leaf a multi-faceted appearance.
The reverse design by Canadian artist Calder Moore presents a contemporary, stylized take on the traditional depiction of Canada’s most beloved national emblem. Intricate engraving re-creates a grouping of maple leaves, with each leaf comprised of geometric-based shapes that give it a more multi-faceted appearance, to convey a swaying motion in the warm breeze. Beautiful reverse gold plating fills the reverse in a way that mimics the golden glow cast by the summer sun. Only the effigy on the obverse, and the central leaf on the reverse, offer a glimpse of the coin’s silver surface—its polished surface adds an exquisite shine, like that of direct sunlight illuminating each engraved detail within the leaf’s serrated tips. The reverse gold-plated obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
