Obverse

The obverse of the 2025 Canadian Silver Treasured Maple Leaf Coin shows the new monarch, King Charles III, for the first time on a Canadian coin. His left-facing profile, designed by Steven Rosati, continues the tradition of monarch portraits on Royal Canadian Mint coinage, showing the King without a crown.

Reverse

The reverse of the 2025 1 oz Silver Treasured Maple Leaf Polar Bear Privy Coin features the classic sugar maple leaf designed by Walter Ott in 1979, along with a special Polar Bear privy mark. The privy mark depicts two polar bears with their noses touching, symbolizing the strength and beauty of the Arctic wildlife.

History

Polar bears are uniquely adapted to the cold, with thick fur and a black layer of skin that absorbs heat from the sun. While their fur appears white, each hair is actually transparent and hollow, reflecting light in a way that gives them their snowy appearance. This unique adaptation allows them to survive in extreme Arctic conditions.
