The beaver and maple leaf are two of the most important symbols of the nation. The industrious beaver was the backbone of the initial trades and economics of Canada, with its valuable skins and pelts drawing traders from around the globe to the bountiful riches in Canada’s natural environment. As for the maple leaf, it predates the nation itself as a symbol of the land, its people, and the hope for a good future.

Each of these 2017 Canadian Piedfort Timeless Icons 1 oz Silver Coins includes selective gold plating on both the obverse and reverse faces of the coin. The proof finish of the coins includes this gold plating for added elegance and dimension to the design features of the coin.
