It is our song, the one that represents every Canadian from coast to coast and across “the True North strong and free.” This year's Silver Maple Leaf fractional set celebrates the 40th anniversary of the National Anthem Act, and the day when "O Canada"officially became Canada's song. All five coins share the same double-dated design. A red Swarovski® element adds extra sparkle to the 1 oz. coin design, which is clad in a red (the colour of Canada) that allows the silver alloy to shine through. But it is the addition of an engraved musical staff—with the famous opening notes of "O Canada"—that ensures our anthem will always have a place in your heart and your collection.
