Introduced in 1988, the Canadian Silver Maple Leaf series has become a staple of global coinage. This 1996 edition is struck from one troy ounce of exceptionally pure silver, boasting a fineness of 0.9999. Backed by the Canadian government and produced by the Royal Canadian Mint, this five-dollar denomination coin represents a year with a relatively low mintage of 250,445 pieces. The obverse of the coin displays a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, accompanied by the year of issue and the face value of 5 dollars. On the reverse, the design showcases Canada's signature national emblem, the maple leaf. This side also carries inscriptions detailing the weight and the high level of metal purity, featuring bilingual text in English and French reading FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR alongside the 0.9999 designation.
