Highly Recognizable National Symbol of Canada
Obverse: The obverse features a left-facing effigy of His Majesty King Charles III that is accompanied by the inscriptions “CHARLES III,” “5 DOLLARS” and “2024.” This rendition of the monarch was created by Steven Rosati, an award-winning Canadian artist and member of the Portrait Society of Canada.
Reverse: The reverse is graced with a sugar maple leaf, an emblem synonymous with Canada. Inscriptions include “CANADA,” “FINE SILVER 1 OZ. ARGENT PUR” and “9999,” along with the dated maple leaf security mark. The incredibly detailed iconic maple leaf design is credited to the late Walter Ott (1920-2020), the RCM’s Master Engraver and Director of Art from 1977-1985.
