The Royal Canadian Mint now offers its gold and silver bullion coins with a variety of enhanced security features, as well as protective features designed to ensure the visual brilliance of the coins. The MINTSHIELD Technology from the RCM is a proprietary application used since 2018 on some of its major silver bullion coins to help prevent the occurrence of white spots or milky finishes that can plague some silver bullion production.
Additional security features found on this Silver Canadian Incuse Maple Leaf Coin include the use of radial lines on the background fields and a micro laser-engraved maple leaf privy on the reverse side of the coin. These products also come with Bullion DNA, a unique program at the RCM that allows silver buyers to validate the authenticity of their purchase directly with the mint.
On the reverse side of 2019 1 oz Silver Canadian Incuse Maple Leaf coins is the image of the sugar maple leaf, Canada’s official emblem. This design remains the same as the one debuted in 1979 on the Gold Maple Leaf coins as designed by Walter Ott. The obverse of 2019 Silver Incuse Maple Leaf coins features Queen Elizabeth II’s portrait in right-profile relief as designed in 2003 by Susanna Blunt.
These coins are beautiful incuse strikes. Both the sugar maple leaf on the reverse and Queen Elizabeth II’s portrait on the reverse are struck into the surface of the coin, sinking the design images below the surface area. This is distinctly different from the traditional means of engraving the design onto the coin’s surface in a 3D image.
