2024 1 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin BU

The Royal Canadian Mint introduced the Gold Maple Leaf in 1979, one of the earliest gold bullion coins still in production today. At that time, the South African Gold Krugerrand, the only contemporary gold bullion coin in existence, had encountered distribution issues due to widespread international boycott in response to their apartheid-era policies.

Energized by the bull market of the 1970s, a wave of sovereign mints stepped in to fill the demand and thus launched the rebirth of modern bullion production. Initially comprised of .999 fine gold, since 1982, the Gold Maple Leaf has set the bar for investment-grade purity and is consistently struck from 99.99% pure gold. The Gold Maple Leaf is extremely popular with bullion investors and is a prime choice in the retail gold bullion market.

The Gold Maple Leaf incorporates several anti-counterfeiting security features. BULLION DNA^TM technology uses laser mark micro-engraving to etch unique privy marks on each gold bullion coin. These privy markings correlate to an official RCM database that instantly verifies any Gold Maple Leaf's authenticity. In addition, the RCM uses precision-machined dies to strike sharp radial lines on both the obverse and reverse of each bullion coin, leaving it with an exclusive pattern distinct to this coin.

The Gold Maple Leaf's reverse side presents a Walter Ott-designed maple leaf, the same design still in use today. The maple leaf, a widely recognized national symbol of Canada dating back several centuries, is exquisitely detailed.

The Gold Maple Leaf's obverse side features the all-new regal profile of the recently coronated British monarch, King Charles III, with a now left-facing bust, the government-backed denomination, and year of issue. This marks the first year of issue with King Charles on the ever-popular Gold Maple Leaf series!

Each 2024 Gold Maple Leaf arrives in Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) condition and can be ordered as single 1 oz coins, in mint tubes of 10 coins, and sealed Monster Boxes of 500 coins.
