1 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin - Random Year
1 oz Canadian Maple Leaf Coins are one of the oldest gold coins in the bullion market. Since its release in 1979, the Royal Canadian Mint has maintained regular annual strikes of these gold coins, updating security features over the years to guarantee their authenticity.
A landmark of the Gold Maple Leaf program was the improvement of gold purity levels. The coins struck until 1982 used to contain 99.9% fine gold. After that year, the following editions reached 99.99% of purity.
1 oz Canadian Maple Leaf is a valuable asset for any precious metals portfolio. And they may be an interesting acquisition for investors who want to find diversity through physical gold bullion.
