Maple Leaf

The Maple Leaf was first issued as the official bullion coin of Canada In 1979. This coin is 24 karat gold with an original face value $50 CAD.

The Royal Canadian Mint promote this coin as the international symbol of purity. They were the first mint to produce a 24 karat bullion coins and it is one of the purest gold coins of regular issue in the world. Since then, the Maple Leaf has become the standard of quality against which all other bullion coins are measured.

Between the years of 1979–1982 this coin was issued with 99.9% purity but from 1983–present this has risen to 99.99%, virtually no alloy at all. They are produced to an extremely high standard by the renowned mint so offer a beautiful choice at reasonable prices for those with an eye for splendour.

The obverse of the coin displays a profile portrait of Queen Elisabeth II, with the value and the year of issue. The reverse displays the Canadian national emblem, the Maple Leaf. As this symbol is also featured on the national flag this coin is distinguished and recognisable worldwide.
