DESCRIPTION
Faithfully re-sculpted using archival images, this 2 oz. 99.99% pure silver coin from the Royal
Canadian Mint is a timely look back at one of Canada’s most famous transitional issues: the 1947
Maple Leaf five-cent circulation coin. Its historic reverse features the small maple leaf that was
added 75 years ago, in early 1948, to Canadian coins struck after India gained its independence
from British rule, but before a new obverse was ready. On the original coin, the unusual mark
alludes to imminent change: the removal of “ET IND: IMP:” (Emperor Of India) from the outmoded obverse legend, which has also been faithfully reproduced on this limited collectible that brings the past to life.
