The 2025 pure gold fractional set continues the tradition of featuring an inspiring portrait of a Canadian maple leaf on each coin’s reverse, which also alludes to a special celebration in 2025: the 60th anniversary of the National Flag of Canada. On all four coins, the milestone is commemorated by the double dates, the flag-inspired privy mark, and on the obverse, the historical effigy from 1965—the year Canada’s red-and-white maple leaf flag made its big debut. The set exclusive 1 oz. coin is the stand-out piece: its engraved maple leaf has been enhanced with translucent red enamel that gives it a symbolic colour boost and pays tribute to Canada’s national flag. HST/GST Exempt.

The Design:
All four coins in this set share the same reverse design by Joel Kimmel. Each one features a sugar maple leaf (Acer saccharum) flanked by the dates “1965” and “2025” commemorating the 60th anniversary of the National Flag of Canada, along with a special privy mark in the shape of the flag’s 11-point maple leaf; on the 1 oz. coin, the large engraved maple leaf is enhanced with translucent red enamel. The celebration continues on each obverse, which features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Arnold Machin, as seen on Canadian coins issued in 1965.
