2023 $50 FINE SILVER COIN
35TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE SML

It’s not just about marking milestones: anniversaries are an opportunity for reflection and celebration, and the Royal Canadian Mint is proud of what the Silver Maple Leaf (SML) bullion coin has achieved in its 35-year history – from setting a high standard in purity to introducing cutting-edge features that have made it the world’s most secure silver bullion coin. This 5 oz.-sized 35th anniversary celebration embodies the same qualities that continue to define the SML: beauty, purity and classic craftsmanship. On both the obverse and reverse, selective gold plating adds a rich, golden gleam that reflects our pride in the SML, whose namesake leaf continues to captivate collectors and investors worldwide.

 While Walter Ott’s maple leaf design is as intricate as ever, selective (yellow) gold plating on the reverse highlights the ornate flourishes that celebrate the SML’s anniversary in 2023. The obverse also features selective gold plating.
 Canada’s Silver Maple Leaf (SML) bullion coin turns 35 in 2023. This commemorative issue celebrates the SML’s 35 years of successes and achievements as one of the most sought-after silver bullion coins.
 Each coin has been meticulously crafted in 5 oz. of 99.99% pure silver – five times more silver than the one-ounce SML coin.
 Features a matte proof finish: the field’s satin shine keeps the focus on the brilliant relief.
 With its low mintage of just 2,000 coins, this limited collectible brings added distinction and prestige to any collection.
