This pure gold collectable coin recreates the familiar shape of a maple leaf, specifically that of a sugar maple (Acer saccharum). Its unique outline showcases some of this maple leaf's defining characteristics, such as the wavy nature of the leaf's edge and the veining in the lobes. A proud national emblem that is evocative of Canada's natural beauty, the maple leaf has inspired artists; graced the uniforms of soldiers pursuing peace; and given hope to new Canadians looking for opportunities. It continues to evoke a sense of national identity among the millions who call Canada home.
