Some of the most renowned mints worldwide offer platinum coins, along with their gold and silver counterparts.

The Design of Platinum maple leaf

Usually, British Commonwealth nations issue their official coins with the Head of State’s effigy. Because of that, Canadian coins feature Queen Elizabeth II’s portrait in their obverse.

The design stamped on the coin’s obverse showcases an elegant, not crowned 79-year-old Elizabeth II through the eyes of artist Susanna Blunt. The words “ELIZABETH II,” “50 DOLLARS,” and the mint year surround Her Majesty’s bust.

The reverse depicts the Sugar Maple Leaf, a Canadian national symbol. The information engraved refers to the coin’s weight, precious metal content, and fineness in both official languages, English and French. They read: “CANADA,” “9995”, “FINE PLATINUM,” “1 OZ,” “PLATINE PUR.”
