It is an ideal that has lured untold multitudes across great open waters to a New World. To a place where a vast, unknown and untamed nature would be undiminished by the people’s resolution to start anew, to turn a new leaf. This coin features the highest relief that the Royal Canadian Mint has ever achieved on a 5 oz. It was struck multiple times using enhanced tooling developed specifically for the demanding pressures necessary to yield a visually stunning result. Each coin features a fresh and airy new perspective of the maple leaf – a wonderful souvenir of Canada, and a highly collectible expression of national pride, and a superb addition to any fine silver collection. This coin’s design features the exceptional sculptural qualities of high relief, an age-old technique normally reserved for large medals and medallions. The maple leaves on this coin literally rise from the coin’s surface like sculptures. This coin is 99.99% pure silver with a worldwide mintage of only 2,000. This coin was designed by Canadian artist Luc Normandin. It features three maple leaves gently drifting on an autumn breeze. The coin’s airy design beautifully conveys the notion of time through the perpetual rhythm of Canada’s four seasons. Each coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded red lacquered wooden box protected by a black beauty box. Check out my other items. Be sure to add me to your favorites list. Unsearched All of the coins offered in this listing are unsearched. Many coin dealers search all coins when they are received from the Mint. They “cherry-pick” the best coins. Then submit them to be graded, certified, and slabbed by PCGS, NGC, ANACS, etc. When a dealer searches coins, those that they sell in original Mint packaging are only lesser quality coins. Photos: When a listing offers multiples of the same coin, one coin is picked at random and photographed. Since all coins offered in that listing are essentially identical, the coin photographed is representative of all coins offered. Surface areas that appear black on some proof coin photos are actually highly polished, mirror-bright metal reflecting the color of the camera. We often include proof coin photos with the coin slightly tilted to better depict the mirror bright surfaces. However, tilting the coin may resulting one side being slightly out of focus. Whenever possible, we use actual photos of our coins, rather than just stock artwork from the Mint. We frequently update and upgrade the photos that appear with our listings, using improved cameras and lenses and better lighting. We will honor your requests for additional photos as quickly as our schedule permits. The item “Canada 2014 $50 Maple Leaf in High Relief 5 Troy oz.
