I have a 2011 dollar that has the stylized maple leaf (maybe??) in a circle below the portrait of Queen Elizabeth, as in the numista catalog photo. But I also have a 2005 dollar with nothing below the portrait. I see no mention of this difference in the catalog. Are both these coins KM495?

Is there such a mint mark (stylized maple leaf in a circle) below the portrait of the queen?

The circled maple leaf is the logo of the Royal Canadian Mint (which, on Numista, is symbolized by the L after the dates). On loonies before 2006, no logo was used; on loonies after 2006, the logo was used. And in 2006, there was a mixture of both logo and non-logo coins.
So, to answer your question: yes, both your coins are KM#495.
