2013 Canada Maple Leaf 25 Year Anniversary 1 oz Silver

2013 Canada Maple Leaf 25 Year Anniversary 1 oz Silver

Popularity can be gained overnight, and lost just as quickly. Esteem rises from commitment to consistency over time. Respect and honor must be earned and maintained. Twenty-five years in the making, the Royal Canadian Mint proudly celebrates yet another remarkable milestone. The Silver Maple Leaf has certainly earned the global respect and honor that has come by the RCM's long commitment to consistency and innovation.

When you think of consistency, it usually brings to mind the idea of unchanging repetition, or "sameness over time." Yet, the Royal Canadian Mint has defined this term as a path; a consistent evolution toward the best and the finest they can become. Certainly their early aspiration for the SML was for its simple, iconic elegance to find its place among the respected world bullion offerings. Those aspirations have, indeed risen to a high standing. The SML consistently performs among the top selling silver bullion coins on the global market, second only to the American Silver Eagle.

This beautiful 25th anniversary 1 oz Silver Maple Leaf features the large numeral "25" prominently filling the center field, as it intertwines the maple leaf. The smooth, clean background allows the raised design to really stand out with a crisp clarity.

Since its introduction in 1988, the iconic Silver Maple Leaf (SML) has been a highly sought-after Royal Canadian Mint bullion investment coin. This 2013 SML is minted with 1 troy ounce (31.11 grams) of .9999 fine silver. With a face value of $5, it is the highest face value on the market for any comparable silver bullion coin.

This is a stunning design, and a very fitting tribute marking 25 years of Silver Maple Leaf excellence! With limited mintage and collectibility, you should not delay on this one.
