Silver Canadian World Coins & Bullion
Royal Canadian Mint (RCM) Canada
RCM - Royal Canadian Mint
The Royal Canadian Mint was established back in 1908; however, their first silver bullion coin (Silver Maple Leaf) did not come into the picture until 1988. Now a widely sought after piece, the Silver Maple Leaf is RCM's most popular silver coin in production. As one of the most innovative mints in the industry, RCM has produced many 'firsts' in coin striking. Such achievements include the first colored coin, the first .9999 fine 5 oz Silver coin, the first million dollar face-value coin, and many more!

Silver Maple Leaf
Production of Canadian Silver Maple Leaf Coins began in 1988. Today, they are highly sought after Royal Canadian mint bullion investment grade coins produced annually with a purity of .9999 (99.99%) fine silver. In recent years, the RCM has enhanced the security of their Silver Maples to include radial lines in the background of the design, a micro-engraved maple leaf on the obverse of each coin and Bullion DNA anti-counterfeiting technology. The Radial Lines are precisely machined to be specific on each die and create a light-diffracting patter that is specific to the coin. The micro-engraved maple leaf can be located on the obverse of the coin and for the 2017 year-date, the numeral "17" can be found under magnification in the center of the design. Lastly, the Bullion DNA is an industry first that features an anit-counterfeit security mark that is micro-engraved on each coin and registered with the Royal Canadian Mint and can be instantly authenticated with the proprietary Bullion DNA Reader and software (one of which SilverTowne has located in our showroom).
