About
A maple anniversary bouquet in celebration of the Platinum Maple Leaf’s 35 years.
One of the world’s most coveted platinum offerings, Canada’s Platinum Maple Leaf (PtML) bullion coin turns 35 this year (2023) and this exquisite maple bouquet is our way of marking the happy occasion. On your coin’s reverse, four sugar maple leaves—the same maple species so elegantly featured on every Platinum Maple Leaf issued since 1988—form an eye-pleasing, symmetrical arrangement that is further enhanced with touches of yellow gold. The double dates “1988-2023” commemorate the anniversary of the coin’s big debut, as does Arnold Machin’s historic effigy, which looks resplendent in 99.95% platinum.
A platinum-themed pairing: the 1988 effigy and an anniversary bouquet.

The reverse design by artist Luc Normandin features an elegant bouquet composed of sugar maple (Acer saccharum) leaves. Yellow gold plating on the rim and on two of the four leaves creates a striking colour contrast, while the dates “1988-2023” commemorate the 35ᵗʰ anniversary of the first Platinum Maple Leaf bullion coin. The rim is also gold-plated on the obverse, which, like the first coin issued in 1988, features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Arnold Machin.
