2024 Silver Maple Leafs

2024 Silver Maple Leafs featuring King Charles III for the first time

The new 2024 Silver Maple Leafs are highly collectible and historically significant because for the first time ever the front face has a monarch other than Queen Elizabeth II gracing it.

Canada’s signature silver bullion coin is one of the world’s most iconic and instantly recognizable coins. Since its introduction in 1988, the coin has featured a maple leaf on the reverse and Queen Elizabeth II on the face.

Instead of Queen Elizabeth II (who passed away in on Sept. 8, 2022), this year’s coin introduces the first Canadian effigy of King Charles III. His Majesty King Charles III was officially proclaimed King of Canada on Sept. 10, 2022.

Why a Maple Leaf?

The maple leaf has been Canada’s national symbol since the 1800s. Canadian pennies started featuring maple leaves in the 1850s. Then from 1876 to 1901, the maple leaf appeared on all Canadian coins.

Of course, the maple leaf isn’t just used on coins. It’s also a symbol of Canadian identity. In 1868, it was used on the Ontario and Quebec coat of arms. It was on the Olympic uniforms of Canadian athletes beginning in 1908. It was featured on Canadian military uniforms and equipment in both World Wars. And it was put on the country’s new national flag in 1965.

It’s said that the distinctive maple leaf signifies pride, connection, and community.

  • The coins are highly pure 99.99% fine silver.

Now Available: 2021 Queen’s Beast White Greyhound 1 oz Gold Coin

California Gold and Silver Exchange is excited to be carrying the 2021 Queen’s Beast White Greyhound 1 oz Gold Coin.  This coin is now available for purchase. Get this 10th coin in the series while supplies last. Furthermore, Click Here for more information on gold coins we carry.

The Queen’s Beasts Collection brings ancient symbols of ancestry, power, and heraldry to life on a series of prestigious coins. Acclaimed designer Jody Clark has reimagined the ten beasts that stood guard at the coronation of Her Majesty The Queen in 1953; each one representing a strand of ancestry brought together in a young woman about to be crowned before the nation.

Combining investment with exceptional design, this popular series concludes with a design showcasing the majestic White Greyhound of Richmond. In 1449, Henry VI granted the earldom of Richmond to his half-brother Edmund Tudor. With this grant, Edmund received Henry’s permission to use a particular version of the Royal Arms featuring a white greyhound as a heraldic supporter. Edmund’s only son would become Henry VII when he defeated Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth in 1485. The greyhound expressed both his Tudor and Lancastrian ancestry, through which he claimed the throne.

The shield the white greyhound is clutching shows the Tudor rose. Combining the red rose of Lancaster and the white rose of York, it symbolizes how Henry VII united these warring houses, ending the Wars of the Roses. Artist Jody Clark captures the greyhound’s nobility, as well as its power and elegance. Featuring a secure chainmail background, the realism of the White Greyhound of Richmond is displayed to its fullest.

Key Points:

  • Struck in one ounce of 999.9 fine gold
  • Finished to The Royal Mint’s bullion standard
  • Both sides of the coin were created by prestigious designer Jody Clark
  • Features a secure, detailed chainmail background texture
  • Struck by The Royal Mint – the official mint of the United Kingdom
  • Packaged in a single coin capsule
