2015 Maple Leaf Fractional Sets in Gold and Silver

Featuring reverse designs emblematic of Canada’s national symbol, the sugar maple leaf, the Royal Canadian Mint has unveiled two new collections sure to delight many collectors. Now available are the 2015 Maple Leaf Gold Fractional Set and the 2015 Maple Leaf Silver Incuse Fractional Set.

Although the two sets are seen as continuations of past popular programs, both also mark several firsts in their respective series. They are also available in limited amounts at just 600 gold sets and 9,999 silver sets.

"The strong, resilient, and bountiful sugar maple has long been a symbol of Canada," offers the Royal Canadian Mint on its website. "From this nation’s earliest years, Canadians have adopted the image of the maple leaf to represent Canada and its people, and since 1964 this symbol has held a place of honour at the centre of Canada’s flag"

Additional information and pricing of the two Maple Leaf Fractional Sets is offered below:
