Platinum coins from previous years

The platinum Maple Leaf coins from previous years are generally cheaper than the newly struck coins, while the weight and content are the same. As a result, one receives proportionally more platinum for their money. All platinum Maple Leaf coins that we sell are checked for authenticity, weight and content.

Margin scheme

Platinum, like silver, is considered a commodity and for this reason bars of platinum and silver are taxed with 21% VAT. Coins, on the other hand, are traded under the margin scheme and are therefore more attractively priced. In addition to platinum coins, we also offer platinum bars in combination with storage.
