The maple leaf has served as a symbol of pride and national identity for Canadians dating back to more than 100 years before Confederation. For 2013, the Royal Canadian Mint has taken this classic symbol and created a new three-dollar collector coin with an artistic modern image in pure silver. The design features a unique 3D impression of a large maple leaf surrounded by over 100 smaller maple leaves. The back is engraved with the word "Canada," the date "2013" and the face value of "3 dollars." In addition to its presence on the national flag, various provincial flags and coats of arms, the maple leaf has been featured on most Canadian coins from 1858 to 1936, and on Canadian one-cent coins from 1858 to the final issue in 2012.
