The reverse consists of Walter Ott's traditional Maple Leaf design accompanied by the Dragon Privy Mark.
The inscriptions on this side refer to the nation on top with “CANADA” and the coin’s weight, metal content, and fineness in English and French through “9999 FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR 9999.”
Anti-counterfeiting
RCM’s exclusive anticounterfeiting measures are applied in all Maple Leaf coins of the series. These measures include radial lines working as a backdrop on both sides, serrated edges, the RCM Bullion DNA™, and the MINTSHIELD™ surface protection to reduce the occurrence of white spot discoloration.
