Coin Highlights

• Contains ½ oz of .9999 pure gold in BU condition;
• Holds a CAD 20 denomination and legal tender status;
• Exclusive authentication system - Bullion DNA;
• The obverse depicts King Charles III for the first time in the series;
• The reverse features the sugar maple leaf.

The Design

As the series name suggests, the main motif is the sugar maple leaf, a Canadian national symbol that stamps the reverse design. The image is in a central position, flanked by the coin’s information regarding metal content, purity, and weight in French and English. The engravings read “CANADA,” “9999,” “FINE GOLD,” “1/2 OZ,” and “OR PUR.” 

The new obverse design depicts King Charles III’s effigy for the first time in the series. Opposingly to the Queen’s, His Majesty’s portrait is a left-profile bust, but the inscriptions surrounding it are the same. They consist of “CHARLES III,” “20 DOLLARS,” and “2024.”

Both background surfaces are incused with radial lines. And a small maple leaf lies on the lower right of the reverse design, beneath the main one, with the last two digits of the mintage year micro-engraved as a security measure.

Mintage

Common to most coin collections, the Maple Leaf Series debuted with one-troy-ounce coins in 1979. Fractional sizes, including the ½ oz coin, were additional issues, broadening the collection.

Following the series patterns, the 1/2 oz Gold Maple Leaf is made of 99.99% pure gold and has a face value of CAD 20, fully guaranteed by the Canadian Government.

RCM Bullion DNA

The Bullion DNA is a Royal Canadian Mint exclusive anticounterfeiting technology. DNA stands for Digital Non-Destructive Activation, meaning each coin receives an encrypted string of codes during the registration process, which remains stored on the RCM’s database and is only readable through a specialized scanner.
