The reverse showcases the unmistakable sugar maple leaf, one of Canada's most enduring national symbols. Inscriptions surrounding the design include "CANADA," the coin's 9999 purity markings and bilingual "FINE GOLD 1/4 OZ OR PUR" inscriptions. Precisely engraved radial lines fill the background, creating the distinctive light-diffracting pattern associated with modern Gold Maple Leaf bullion coins.

The coin's Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) condition allows the sharp maple leaf details and finely engraved background to stand out beautifully.
