1 oz Canadian Silver Maple Leaf Coin – Off Quality

The Silver Maple Leaf is one of the most recognized sovereign bullion coins in the world, and off quality examples deliver the same one troy ounce of .9999 fine silver at the lowest premium we offer on the series. Cosmetic flaws only. The metal content is identical to a pristine coin.

Key Features:

• Purity & Weight: 9999 fine silver, 1 troy ounce, 31.1 grams
• Metal: Silver, struck by the Royal Canadian Mint
• Obverse: Effigy of Queen Elizabeth II with denomination and date
• Reverse: Single maple leaf with bilingual purity legends

The obverse carries a right-facing portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, crowned by detailed curls with the drapery of her gown visible at the shoulder. ELIZABETH II arcs across the top rim. Along the bottom the coin reads 5 DOLLARS and the year of issue, marking its $5 CAD legal tender status in Canada.

The reverse shows the mint’s signature sugar maple leaf, struck with individual veins running from a central stem out to each of the pointed lobes. CANADA curves along the top. The purity mark 9999 appears twice, once on each side of the leaf, and the bottom legend reads FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR in the bilingual format the RCM uses across its products.

Off quality means the coin left circulation-grade condition somewhere between the mint and our vault. Expect milk spots, dark toning, fingerprints, scratches, rim dings, or dull fields. Some coins have one issue and others have several. Weight and purity are unaffected, and the coins remain RCM legal tender. These measure 38 mm in diameter and 3.29 mm thick with a reeded edge. Dates and portrait effigies vary with inventory, so you may receive Elizabeth II or King Charles III designs. Coins ship in flips or tubes rather than original mint packaging.

If your goal is ounces rather than eye appeal, this is the most efficient way into a government-backed .9999 silver coin. Add off quality Silver Maple Leafs to your order today and stack more metal for the same money.
