For the 2023 edition, The Royal Canadian Mint combined two stand-out features—black rhodium plating from 2020, and the 1.5 mm super incuse depth that set a new standard in 2021—to give tje Silver Maple Leaf (SML) design a more modern edge.

This special edition of the SML is a study in contrasts: it mixes standard raised relief with a super-incused strike, and a reverse proof finish (frosted field, brilliant relief) with the sleek satin look of black rhodium plating. The result is a fresh take on a familiar design—it’s contemporary, it’s captivating, and it is sure to leave a lasting impression.

Black rhodium and super incuse—a bold combination for 2023.
