Gold Maple Leaf from previous years

The gold Maple Leaf, the first investment coin made with 99.99% pure gold, was first issued in 1979 and has since gained a prominent status among recognised and in-demand gold coins globally. It's also the second oldest gold investment coin, with only the gold Krugerrand being older. 
 
The 1 troy ounce Gold Maple Leaf is very attractive to investors due to its high content of 99.99% pure gold. This makes the coin extremely valuable and easily tradeable worldwide. 
 
The Gold Maple Leaf coins from previous years are generally cheaper than newly minted coins, while the weight and content remain the same. This means one gets proportionally more gold for their money. All Gold Maple Leaf coins we sell are checked for authenticity, weight and content.

Security features of the gold Maple Leaf

The Royal Canadian Mint has over the years incorporated several security features into their 1 troy ounce Gold Maple Leaf coins. These features make it harder to counterfeit the coins completely and make fakes easier to identify because they lack these safety features. 
These features can be found on both the obverse and reverse of the coin:
 

• Advanced micro-engraved security markings, which are barely noticeable with the naked eye, are directly incorporated into the design of the coin.
• Radial lines varying in width and depth not only add a layer of complexity and beauty to the design, but are also incredibly hard to replicate.
