The 1 troy ounce (31.1 grams) Gold Maple Leaf coin is globally recognized and highly tradable, featuring the iconic Canadian maple leaf on its reverse. The Maple Leaf is one of the world’s best-selling gold coins.
These coins of various years have been acquired from the market and come from the period between 1979 and 2024. From an investment perspective, these coins are particularly attractive as they are priced lower than the latest Maple Leaf (2025) which comes directly from the mint and is therefore more expensive. However, upon resale, you receive the same amount for all years of the Gold Maple Leaf coin.
First minted in 1979, the Maple Leaf was the world’s first coin with a purity of 99.99%, or 24 carats. The Gold Maple Leaf is issued annually by The Royal Canadian Mint and is renowned for its reliability and quality.
The Gold Maple Leaf coin represents exceptional craftsmanship, security and refined design. The obverse features the official portrait of Queen Elizabeth II (1979–2023) or King Charles III (2024–present), along with the year of issue and the face value of 50 Canadian dollars. The reverse shows the iconic maple leaf, Canada’s national symbol, together with the weight and purity: “9999 FINE GOLD / OR PUR”.
