Background

The crossed maple bough is the first of this six coin series from the Royal Canadian Mint, and is sure to be popular amongst those who have an interest in Canadian coinage. It does a tremendous job of merging a staple of Canada, the Maple Leaf, with gilding and a different effigy that depicts a famous monarch. The coin's 40-mm diameter makes it double the size of the original. Be sure to add this collectible piece to your cart today!
