RCM issued the first coins within the program in 1979 (gold) and 1988 (silver).

The series instantly became a huge sensation among both long-term investors and first-time collectors. Passionate numismatists all over the world are awaiting the year for the newest releases. This is due to the coins’ high purity, iconic reverse design, and the latest innovative bullion security enhancements.

The same obverse and reverse designs are on both Gold and Silver Maple Leafs.

The famous profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II is on the obverse. It is a design courtesy of Susana Blunt. Meanwhile, the painstakingly detailed, large maple leaf is on the reverse. Yet, the coins carry three exclusive cutting-edge bullion security features. These features make them truly unique.

These astounding coins bear the spectacular light-diffracting radial line background pattern. Secondly, they have the textured laser micro-engraved maple leaf (with the “17” inscription). Finally, they have the exclusive Bullion DNA anti-counterfeiting technology.

The RCM micro-engraves coins with laser technology. They also have a unique anti-counterfeiting security mark on each die. The coin is then registered and encrypted by using a unique algorithm signature. This signature enables the mint to authenticate the coin during verification instantly.

The Gold and Silver Maple Leafs will officially release on December 7th, 2016.
