1/10 oz Gold Canadian Maple Leaf (2021)
Add a truly special bullion coin to your collection or portfolio with the 2021 1/10 oz Gold Canadian Maple Leaf. Manufactured by the Royal Canadian Mint, the Canada Gold Maple Leaf, or Maple as it is commonly known, is the country’s flagship bullion coin.
The 1 oz Maple Leaf coin made its debut in 1979 to compete with the South African Krugerrand. Originally struck from .999 gold, the launch of fractional coins such as the 1/10 oz Maple Leaf in 1982 coincided with an increase in purity to .9999 (24 carat). This instantly elevated it to one of the world’s purest bullion coins.
Why choose the 1/10 oz 2021 Gold Canadian Maple Leaf Coin?
Fractional coins are a more affordable option than larger denominations. Known for its unique design details, the reverse of the 2021 1/10 oz Canadian Maple Leaf Gold Coin features the sugar maple leaf, a universally recognised symbol of Canada.
The coin’s obverse shows the famous Susanna Blunt portrait of HM Queen Elizabeth II. Although other bullion coins use the more recent 5th portrait, 2021 1/10 oz Canadian Maples show her Majesty at the age of 79. Susanna Blunt was the first woman and the first Canadian to create an image of Queen Elizabeth II for use on legal tender currency. Interestingly, it is the only coinage portrait of the Monarch without a crown.
