What is the History of the Canadian Silver Maple Leaf Coins?
The Canadian Government officially launched the silver Maple Leaf in 1988. The official reason for the launch was due to the success of the Canadian Gold Maple Leaf which had launched in 1979. However, it was undoubtedly also due to the success of The United States Mint’s Silver American Eagle, which was launched in September 1986.
In July 1988, the Canadian Government announced that The Royal Canadian Mint would begin production of a Silver Maple Leaf Coin. Production commenced in September of that year, and the coin was launched on 17th November 1988 across six Canadian cities. Demand was so high that in the six weeks up to the end of 1988, the Mint had recorded sales of over 1 million troy ounces of silver.
Who Makes the Canadian Silver Maple Leaf Coins?
The Royal Canadian Mint (RCM) has operated as a Crown Corporation since 1969. It has an independent board of directors but is fully owned by the Canadian Government and operates under Canadian legislation. Originally the RCM was a branch mint of the British Royal Mint when it first opened in Ottawa in 1908. The RCM produces circulating coinage for Canada and other countries at its Winnipeg branch and operates the world famous gold and silver refinery in Ottawa, where it produces high quality bullion bars and coins.
The RCM is a member of the London Bullion Market Association’s good delivery list for both gold and silver good delivery bars, and CME’s Comex exchange recognizes the Royal Canadian Mint on its approved refinery list for gold bars.
