Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2017 Canadian Maple Leaf $20 coin is that it features a unique plating technique, where a layer of pure gold (.9999) is plated over a base of pure silver (.9999). This creates a striking visual effect, with the gold maple leaf design standing out against the silver background. This coin is a non-circulating coin, meaning it was not intended for general circulation and was instead produced for collectors. It has a limited mintage of 2,500 coins, making it a rare and valuable addition to any collection.
