per coin (melt)

The Silver Maple Leaf packs one troy ounce of .9999 ('four nines') silver — among the purest bullion coins minted — so its melt value tracks silver spot one-to-one.

A slightly cheaper way to stack ounces

The Maple Leaf usually carries a lower premium than the American Eagle while holding the same one ounce of silver, which makes it a favourite for stackers focused on metal-per-dollar.

Frequently asked questions

What premium does a Canadian Silver Maple Leaf usually carry?

Historically a Canadian Silver Maple Leaf tends to trade about 12–28% over its melt value at retail, though premiums spike when demand is high and compress when it's quiet. Treat the range here as a guide, not a quote.

Is the melt value what I'll pay or get for a Canadian Silver Maple Leaf?

No. Melt value is the intrinsic worth of the metal — live spot price times the coin's pure content. A dealer sells above melt (their premium) and buys slightly below it (their spread). The melt figure here is the honest baseline; actual retail and buy-back prices move with demand.
