Obverse

On the obverse of the 2016 Wolf Privy Canadian Maple Leaf Reverse Proof 1 oz Silver Coin is a depiction of Queen Elizabeth II. This is the fourth-generation effigy of Her Majesty since her 1952 ascension to the throne and it was created in 2003 by Susanna Blunt. It depicts the Queen in right-profile relief with no crown on her head.

Reverse

The reverse side of the 2016 Wolf Privy Canadian Maple Leaf Reverse Proof Silver Coin bears the image of the sugar maple leaf. The maple leaf has long been associated with Canadian territories and provincial capitals, and is now the official symbol of the country featuring on the national flag. Included within the design field is the image of a wolfs head as a small privy mark.

History

This coin is the first release in the Wild Canada Series, a six-coin release that uses small privy marks on the Canadian Maple Leaf 1 oz Silver bullion coin to celebrate the Canadian Wildlife Series issued by the Royal Canadian Mint from 2011 to 2013.

Ordering

Though there are relatively low mintage figures in the Wild Canada Series, the Royal Canadian Mint offers each release with tubes and Monster Boxes available so the products can sell out quickly.
