The Royal Canadian Mint’s bullion coins are globally recognized for their innovation, craftsmanship, and uncompromising quality. When the Silver Maple Leaf was introduced in 1988, it immediately set a new benchmark as the world’s first 99.99% pure silver bullion coin.
The 2026 Silver Maple Leaf showcases the iconic maple leaf designed in 1979 by Master Engraver Walter Ott — a timeless motif that continues to appear on all Maple Leaf bullion coins. Canada’s national emblem is framed by the inscriptions “CANADA”, “FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR”, and “9999”, highlighting the coin’s exceptional purity.
The obverse features the portrait of King Charles III, engraved by artist Steven Rosati. In line with the long-standing British coinage tradition in which each new monarch faces the opposite direction of their predecessor, King Charles III is depicted facing left — the reverse of the late Queen Elizabeth II’s effigy. Surrounding the portrait are the inscriptions “CHARLES III”, “5 DOLLARS”, and “2026”.
Every 2026 SML bullion coin incorporates advanced security enhancements, including precision radial lines, a micro-engraved maple leaf, and the Mint’s BULLION DNA anti-counterfeiting technology. The coin also benefits from MINTSHIELD surface protection, a unique innovation designed to significantly reduce the appearance of white spots on Silver Maple Leaf bullion coins.
With a face value of 5 CAD — the highest for any comparable silver bullion coin — and containing 1 troy ounce of .9999 fine silver, the 2026 Silver Maple Leaf continues to stand as a benchmark for purity, security, and aesthetic excellence.
Striking the perfect balance between beauty and investment value, the Silver Maple Leaf remains an iconic must-have for both investors and collectors.
