1/4 oz Gold Maple Leaf Coin Prices

Quarter ounce Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin values are based on the world’s fluctuating gold spot price. 

When physical gold bullion coin supplies cannot properly meet bullion investor demand, the premiums or prices per 1/4 ounce Gold Maple Leaf Coin can dramatically rise over the gold spot price (e.g. fall of 2008 gold coin shortage). 

These official Canadian 24k fractional 1/4 oz gold coins also have low legal tender face values (compared to their precious metal market price). This helps assure these fine .9999 gold coins will not actively compete with Canada’s current fiat currency, the Canadian dollar. 

Higher Gold Coin Prices when Buying 

In terms of overall sales volumes, 1/4 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf coins are some of the most popular quarter ounce 24k gold coins currently minted by a government. These official 1/4 oz Canadian gold coins also demand some of the gold bullion industry’s highest gold buy prices (the price gold dealers are bidding or buying these 1/4 oz gold coins back at from investors). 

In general, gold dealers like Kitco Metals pay a price above the fluctuating gold spot price when buying 1/4 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf coins back from individual investors. 

Higher Gold Coin Prices when Selling

Canadian Maple Leaf 1/4 oz gold coins demand some of the highest gold selling prices amongst other competing fractional government gold coins (e.g. fractional South African Gold Krugerrand coins). 

In summation, a quarter oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf coin’s price will usually be both slightly higher when (1) buying and (2) selling them than compared to other less popular fractional gold coins or gold bullion bars. 

Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin Design 

The quarter oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf coin’s front features the familiar right-profile portrait of Queen ELIZABETH II. Her Majesty’s effigy is accompanied by explicit engravings of her name, the year of coin mintage, and the $10 CAD legal tender face value of this .9999 fine 1/4 oz gold coin. 

The backside of a 1/4 oz Gold Canadian Maple Leaf coin features the iconic Canadian Maple Leaf as well as an explicit stamping of ‘9999 FINE GOLD 1/4 OZ OR PUR 9999’ (English / French respectively).
