The maple leaf has long been tied to life in Canada, well before Confederation in 1867. Indigenous communities relied on the maple tree for its sap and wood, and over time the leaf grew into a shared national emblem. It has appeared on many bullion issues from the Royal Canadian Mint, including the Maple Leaf Series, SuperLeaf, and Twin Maples. Today, 2022 2 oz Canadian Silver Twin Maples Coins are available at BullionMax.

French Canadians began using the maple leaf as an emblem in the 1700s. By the 1830s, the Saint-Jean-Baptiste Society had adopted it as a symbol of French Canadian identity. During Queen Victoria’s 1860 visit, Canadian children welcomed the Prince of Wales wearing maple leaves, and the emblem steadily came to represent Canadians of all backgrounds.

All 2022 2 oz Canadian Silver Twin Maples Coins ship in protective plastic flips. The Twin Maples issue shows a distinct view of the sugar maple leaf that differs from other Royal Canadian Mint programs, such as the Maple Leaf and SuperLeaf collections.

On the obverse of the 2022 Canadian Silver Twin Maples is the fourth-generation effigy of Queen Elizabeth II. This right-profile portrait, created by Canadian artist Susanna Blunt, served as the final standard image of Her Majesty during her reign on Canadian coinage.

The reverse of the 2022 2 oz Silver Twin Maples features two natural maple leaves joined to a single stem. The maple leaf appeared on military badges in World War I and became closely linked with Canadian service members abroad. It took center stage on February 15, 1965, when Canada adopted the current national flag with its stylized 11-pointed red maple leaf.
