1 oz Gold Canadian Maple Leaf Coin (2021)
The 1 oz Gold Maple Leaf coin is the signature bullion coin of Canada. Issued by the highly acclaimed Royal Canadian Mint the coin has the same designer as the Krugerrand. In fact, the 1oz Gold Maple was introduced in 1979 specifically to compete with the Krugerrand on the emerging world bullion market.
The 2021 1 oz Gold Maple Leaf is a world leader and one of the purest bullion coins available today. From 1979 until 1982, the 1oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf was struck from .999 pure gold. At the end of 1982, the mint increased the millesimal fineness of these ground-breaking gold bullion coins to .9999 (24 carat).
