Finally, a maple leaf in my collection!
Although it has been in my home for a while now, I didn't write about it yet until today. Everyone knows the maple leafs, probably everyone in this community has one or many, I felt that I could not stay behind. I was happy to buy one from a dear community member and I have to say that I never expected it to be this pretty in real life. Now, I know how detailed it is and I'm surely going to add more to the collection when I can.
Let's check this beauty out
No, I didn't mean the portrait is a beauty, I meant the coin itself, lol. I like the fact that I received a 2016 version because that's the birth year of my youngest daughter and I like to get coins that mean something to me in a way or that I link to some sort of memory etc. Getting the 2016 one is therefore perfect!
I really love ALL the details on the coin, I really do. To be completely honest, I was never really lured to this coin before but I want to get more of them now that I have one. The details on the leaf, I had to look up how the "radial lines" are called but man, I'm really in awe.
This portrait of the Queen is at age 77, not much to say here I mean, I never buy a coin for that side of the coin, I don't know about you...
I tried to take the pictures from different angles but it was hard..
Numismatics
Let's check all info about the coin, which Numista can describe much better than I can..
A tube!
The coin came with a tube especially for the Maple Leafs, and I'm very pleased with that because now I really want to fill that one up. It feels a bit weird to put one coin in there though, and I can hardly imagine that the coins won't damage the one below. Stupid, I know, I will be careful when the time comes.. They are way too pretty to not be careful with!
That's all silver I can share for today.. Have a happy Sunday!
