The Design
Standard to the series, the reverse features the iconic maple leaf, a national symbol. “CANADA” arches on top, and the coin’s information is in English and French, the official languages. They read: “9999,” “FINE SILVER,” “1 OZ,” “ARGENT PUR,” and “9999.” Radial lines cover the background surface, and a small maple leaf on the lower right contains the year of issuance's last two digits, “24”.
The 2024 edition premieres King Charles III's effigy, which consists of a left-profile bust. His Majesty’s name, “CHARLES III,” is on top, while the coin’s face value of “5 DOLLARS” and the year of issuance, “2024,” are on the bottom. The background surface is all covered with radial lines as well.
RCM Bullion DNA
The Royal Canadian Mint has developed a unique system of authentication of each produced coin to avoid counterfeiting: The Bullion DNA, which stands for Digital
Non-Destructive Activation. Each coin receives an encrypted string of codes during the registration process, which is stored in the RCM’s database. Only specific scanners can read the encrypted code.
