DESCRIPTION
Canada’s beloved sugar maple leaf has been engraved to multifaceted perfection, and on a grand scale too. Never before has a kilo coin from the Royal Canadian Mint featured such dynamic facets that rise and fall like valleys and peaks aglow with light, giving each design element a more dimensional shape. The magic doesn’t end there: the alternating use of proof and satin finishes also produces a dazzling starburst effect that creates a sense of light joyously dancing across the design, whether you’re looking at the obverse or the stunning reverse that warrants—and rewards—repeat viewings. The RCM’s largest multifaceted coin design yet. Crafted in 1 kg of 99.99% pure silver, this coin’s stunning maple leaf arrangement was made possible by multifaceted engraving, an innovative technique that gives the design a more multi-dimensional appearance and highlights the complexity of each engraved shape.\
