The 2024 Canada Super Incuse Maple marks the 45th anniversary of Walter Ott's iconic Sugar Maple Leaf design and is the last year that the Super Incuse Maple Leaf will feature this design. Due to a quirk at the Royal Canadian Mint, the 2024 Canada Super Incuse Maple will be the only Walter Ott-designed Sugar Maple Leaf issued in 2024 to feature Susanna Blunt's effigy of Queen Elizabeth II.
Struck using advanced pre-forming technology and thicker planchets, the 2024 Canada Super Incuse Maples feature Super Incuse striking that is 5 times deeper than any incuse strike seen on previous maples. In addition to the canyonesque depth, the incuse maple leaf on the 1oz silver coin been specially plated with 24-karat gold, while the 2oz gold coin has been specially plated with platinum. The gold and platinum plating was also added to Queen Elizabeth's effigy and the raised rim encircling each coin respectively.
Specially crafted for this issue, both the obverse and the reverse display an intricately detailed and unique "mapleburst" field on both coins. The "bursting" pattern has a beautiful satin finish that subtly contrasts the frosted field and adds to the coin's elegance. Additionally, the innermost maple leaves have the number "45" inscribed in honor of the 45th anniversary of Walter Ott's Sugar Maple Leaf design.
The obverse features Susanna Blunt's famous effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, which has been seen on Canadian coinage since 2003, exuding poise and strength. The reverse features the iconic Sugar Maple Leaf design created by Walter Ott, which has remained unchanged since 1979. Often referred to as the "Emblem of the Nation's Spirit," the maple leaf has been an important and recognizable symbol for nearly three centuries.
With a mintage limited to only 8,000 for the 1oz silver coin and 300 for the 2oz gold coin, both coins completely sold out within hours of being released by the Royal Canadian Mint. Of this limited number, a very limited quantity of silver and gold coins and have been certified as First Day of Issue by PCGS and graded in a perfect condition of PR70. Each coin also comes with a PCGS Susanna Blunt signed label.
