The Royal Canadian Mint has been one of the most innovative companies in the bullion market. It was the pioneer in minting coins with 99.99% pure gold and later set a new standard in 1998 with 99.999% fineness.

After seven years, the Royal Canadian Mint struck a 1 oz Gold Maple Leaf made of 99.999% pure gold in a very limited run of 400 pieces as an experimental issuance.

The reverse depicts a sugar maple leaf, the national symbol. The inscriptions referring to the coin’s information are in English and French, as both languages are official in Canada. They read: “CANADA,” “99999,” “FINE GOLD,” “1 OZ,” and “OR PUR,” standing for fineness, metal content, and weight.
