A NEW TWIST ON A CLASSIC! With Super Incuse technology, you’ll see the GML’s maple leaf in a whole new way. The engraving is every bit as intricate and detailed as previous GML coins, but the extreme relief depth adds a new level of complexity to an already famous design.

You’ll find this privy mark on all coins in our 2021 Arboreal Anniversary Collection.
MODIFIED REVERSE PROOF FINISH! The lightly frosted field and brilliant relief practically guarantee all eyes will be on the super incuse maple leaf, which boasts a mirror-like shine.
HIGH PRESTIGE, LOW MINTAGE! Only 225 coins are available to collectors worldwide.
Design:
Your coin’s reverse features Walter Ott’s iconic sugar maple leaf design, unchanged since the first Gold Maple Leaf (GML) bullion coin issued in 1979. For the first time ever, its famous maple leaf has been struck using Super Incuse technology, which gives it an incuse depth of 1.5 millimetres. A modified reverse proof finish ensures the focus is on the brilliant relief.
The reverse also includes the engraved words “CANADA” and “FINE GOLD 2 OZ OR PUR”, as well as the purity standard of “9999” and a “25” maple leaf privy mark in honour of the 25th anniversary of thearboreal emblem of Canada, the maple (Acer). The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt, along with the engraved face value “200 DOLLARS” and the year “2021”.
"Collectors might be wondering how we were able to achieve that much incuse depth without any ghosting on the obverse (e.g., a shadow of the leaf around the effigy). Admittedly, it was a challenge! But one of the keys to our success was the implementation of a pre-forming step, which brought the material to where it needs to be prior to the final striking. And by adopting a new approach, we were still able to achieve the flawless impression you see here with just three strikes, even if it is significantly deeper than standard incuse." The Engineer: Yannick Cormier, Senior Research Engineer
"One of the challenges we faced with this coin’s super-incuse relief was the master tooling. With a standard design, we can polish the field with ease, as the relief is cut in the negative; in this case, we had to work around the incuse elements of the design, which required a bit more dexterity and focus. But with a bit of ingenuity and some elbow grease, we were able to take this iconic design to a whole other level!" The Engraver: Ryan Poser, Engraver
