Year after year, Maple Leaves in Motion presents creative art and tech pairings that add new visual interest to the familiar sight of a proud maple leaf. For 2026, we’ve opted for a classic look to mark the 30th anniversary of the maple tree’s designation as Canada’s national arboreal emblem. On the coin’s reverse, the largest leaf is plated with rose gold, while the three smaller leaves—one for each decade of the maple tree’s reign as an official emblem—are highlighted with yellow gold. And behind it all, the holograph-like pattern creates the illusion of motion whenever its micro maples catch the light.
