The Canadian Silver Maple Leaf is a popular silver bullion coin produced by the Royal Canadian Mint. First issued in 1988, it contains one troy ounce of .9999 fine silver, making it one of the purest silver coins available. The coin features an image of the iconic maple leaf, a symbol of Canada, on its reverse side, while the obverse displays a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This coin is widely recognized and sought after by investors and collectors alike due to its high silver content and beautiful design. The Canadian Silver Maple Leaf is also legal tender in Canada, with a face value of five Canadian dollars, although its market value is typically much higher based on the current silver prices.
