7118.90.00.11 - Canadian maple leaf

This HTS code, 7118.90.00.11, specifically classifies Canadian maple leaf coins. These coins, while fulfilling the function of legal tender or commemorative items, are distinguished by their iconic Canadian maple leaf design. They are typically made of precious metals, such as gold or silver, and are issued by the Canadian government. The primary classification intent here is to identify these specific national coinage issues.

This category is distinct from its sibling, 7118.90.00.19 ("Other"), which would encompass all other coins not specifically designated. Therefore, any coin that is not a Canadian maple leaf coin, but falls under the broader classification of "other coins" within this tariff chapter, would be directed to the sibling category. The key differentiator is the specific national emblem and designation of the Canadian maple leaf.

As this node is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. All qualifying Canadian maple leaf coins are consolidated under this single HTS code. Classification relies on the clear identification of the coin as a Canadian legal tender or collectible coin bearing the maple leaf motif, typically manufactured from precious metals.
