Description
Canada: 2025 $50 Maple Tree of Life – 5 oz. Pure Silver Coin
Design: Designed by Canadian artist Steve Hepburn, the coin’s reverse features an artistic interpretation of Canada’s national arboreal emblem, the maple (g. Acer), reimagined as a tree of life and plated with yellow gold. The tree’s curled roots dig deep into the ground to provide a solid foundation for the twisting trunk, the strong branches that stretch up and out, and the sugar maple leaves that are bathed in golden sunlight. Behind the tree, the engraved background combines various land features—mountain ranges, rivers and forests—to showcase the many majestic landscapes that Canada has to offer. The rim on both sides is also plated with yellow gold, while the obverse features a wave pattern and the gold-plated effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
