2025 1/2 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin
The Royal Canadian Mint first released Gold Maple Leaf coins in the market in 1979 to conquer their space among South African Gold Krugerrands and the Austrian 100 Corona Gold Coins.
The debuting coin of the Maple Leaf Program was a gold bullion coin weighing 1 Troy oz, but the Royal Canadian Mint broadened the collection by including ½ oz, ¼ oz, 1/10 oz, 1/20 oz, and the tiny 1 gram gold coins.
The 1/2 oz Gold Maple Leaf has a 20-dollar denomination, and the Canadian Government guarantees its legal tender status. As its counterparts, it features the Sugar Maple Leaf design, which names the series, and the most advanced anti counterfeiting measures.
SD Bullion offers the most recent edition of the Maple Leaf Series, the 2025 1/2 oz Gold Maple Leaf Coin.

The Design
The series’ motif is the sugar maple leaf, a Canadian national symbol designed by Walter Ott on the reverse side.
The icon is 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, designed by Steven Rosati, depicts King Charles III’s effigy. His Majesty’s left-profile bust is surrounded by the inscriptions“CHARLES III,” “20 DOLLARS,” and “2025.”
Both background surfaces are incused with radial lines. A small maple leaf lies on the lower right of the reverse design, beneath the central sugar maple leaf, with the last two digits of the mintage year micro-engraved as a security measure.
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.
