The coin's unusual design recreates the familiar shape of a maple leaf-specifically that of a sugar maple (Acer saccharum). Its unique outline showcases some of this maple leaf's defining characteristics, such as the wavy nature of the leaf's edge and the curved sinuses between its palmate lobes. Intricate detailing on the reverse gives it a life-like quality, with engraved veins running through the three upper lobes and the two smaller basal lobes.
