2026 5 oz PCGS Gem BU “Trial Strike” Canadian Silver Grand Maple Leaf Coin – Nathalie Lagacé Label #1

The Royal Canadian Mint (RCM) continues its legacy of excellence with the 2026 5 oz Silver Grand Maple Leaf “Trial Strike”, certified Gem Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) by PCGS and presented with the first-ever Nathalie Lagacé Signature Label (#1).

As one of the earliest pre-production strikes from the RCM, this Trial Strike was struck to verify die fidelity, strike depth, and finish quality before official release. What makes this piece extraordinary, however, is its Label #1 designation—the first label ever signed by the renowned RCM artist and engraver Nathalie Lagacé, making it a unique and historic numismatic artifact.

Containing five troy ounces of .9999 fine silver, the coin showcases the Royal Canadian Mint’s unparalleled craftsmanship. It features Walter Ott’s iconic Maple Leaf on the reverse and King Charles III’s effigy on the obverse, both rendered with stunning precision and the Mint’s advanced anti-counterfeiting technology.

Certified by PCGS as Gem Brilliant Uncirculated, this coin represents the perfect union of prototype rarity, artistic legacy, and modern minting excellence.

The Design

The reverse features the Royal Canadian Mint’s iconic Sugar Maple Leaf, the enduring symbol of Canadian pride and purity. Every vein and contour is rendered with crisp precision against a background of fine radial lines—an RCM hallmark that enhances both beauty and security. Surrounding inscriptions include “CANADA,” “9999,” “FINE SILVER 5 OZ ARGENT PUR.”

The obverse presents the effigy of King Charles III, designed by Canadian artist Steven Rosati. The inscriptions “CHARLES III,” “D.G. REX,” “25 DOLLARS,” and “2026” frame the portrait, underscoring the coin’s official legal tender status.

As a Trial Strike, this coin exhibits exceptional clarity, mirror-like brilliance, and subtle die-polish details, embodying the perfection sought before full production begins.
