2025 Canada 5 oz Silver Maple Leaves in Motion Yellow Gold Plated

The 2025 fifty-dollar Canadian coin presents a captivating study in texture and contrast, combining five ounces of 0.9999 fine silver with selective yellow gold plating. On the reverse, artist Lisa Thomson-Khan depicts three sugar maple leaves. Two of these leaves are rendered with traditional engraving techniques, while a third leaf stands out with a multifaceted engraved surface. The yellow gold plating is meticulously applied to the background leaves, leaving the foremost leaf to shine in its natural silver state. A laser-engraved pattern of tiny maple leaves fills the background, creating a sense of depth and movement. The obverse of this proof coin is almost entirely covered in yellow gold plating, providing a rich backdrop for the effigy of King Charles III, designed by Steven Rosati. This side of the coin displays the inscriptions "CHARLES III," "50 DOLLARS," and the year "2025." With a strict mintage limit of just 2,000 pieces, this release from the Royal Canadian Mint showcases advanced minting technology and artistic design.
