New since 2015 are security enhancements to the 1 oz Gold Maple Leaf Coin. Precision radial lines have been machined within microns to create a light diffractive pattern that is unique in appearance to this coin. Since 2013, the Mint has micro engraved by laser technology a textured maple leaf on the reverse side of the coin. Under magnification, the number “23” is visible to denote the year of issue.
The central feature of the coin’s design is the universally recognized symbol of Canada, the maple leaf, which appears on the reverse side along with the coin’s purity and weight. The iconic Gold Canadian Maple Leaf is one of the world’s most popular gold bullion coins with over 25 million troy ounces being sold since the gold coin was first issued in 1979. One of the primary reasons for this is that it was the first coin ever to a heightened purity level of .9999 fineness.
And this year, the obverse features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt, which also bears a special marking that includes four pearls symbolizing the four effigies that have graced Canadian coins and the double date of her reign.
*Although this product has never been circulated, the soft nature of the .9999 purity does make this product susceptible to minor imperfections during the minting and transportation cycle. There is no guarantee associated with the grade of the coin, other than it being current year and uncirculated.
