Comment

The hardiness, utility and uniqueness of the sugar maple (Acer saccharum) make it a cherished species, but many people (Canadians included!) fail to see its ephemeral spring bloom. While some species of maple have bright clusters of red flowers, the sugar maple has yellow-green flowers. The latter give it a proud appearance in early spring, but as their color resembles that of young leaves, they often blend in with the emerging foliage.

Packaging
The coin is encapsulated and carefully presented in a lacquered red wooden box embossed with the Royal Canadian Mint logo. The case is accompanied by a black protective box. Automatically translated

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

La robustesse, l’utilité et l’unicité de l’érable à sucre (Acer saccharum) en font une espèce chérie, mais bien des gens (Canadiens compris!) ne réussissent pas à voir sa floraison éphémère au printemps. Si certaines espèces d’érable arborent de vives grappes de fleurs rouges, l’érable à sucre affiche plutôt des fleurs jaune-vert. Ces dernières lui donnent une fière allure au début du printemps, mais comme leur couleur ressemble à celle des jeunes feuilles, elles se fondent souvent dans le feuillage naissant.

Emballage
La pièce est encapsulée et soigneusement présentée dans un coffret de bois rouge laqué orné du logo de la Monnaie royale canadienne. Le boîtier est assorti d’une boîte protectrice noire.
