2023 1/2 oz Gold Maple Leaf Coin Prices
Half ounce Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin prices are based on the world’s fluctuating spot gold price.
When physical gold supplies cannot properly meet bullion investor demand, the premiums or prices per 1/2 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 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
In terms of overall sales volumes, Canadian Gold Maple Leaf coins are some of the most popular half ounce 24k gold coins currently minted by a government. These official 1/2 oz Canadian Gold Coins also demand some of the gold bullion industry’s highest gold buying prices (the price gold dealers are bidding or buying these 1/2 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 1/2 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf coins back from individual investors.
Canadian Maple Leaf 1/2 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 half oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf coin’s price will usually be both slightly higher when (1) buying Gold Maple Leaf Coins and (2) selling Gold Maple Leaf Coins when compared to other less popular fractional gold coins or gold bullion bars.
Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin Design
The 1/2 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 $20 CAD legal tender face value of this .9999 fine 1/2 oz gold coin.
The backside of a 1/2 oz Gold Canadian Maple Leaf Coin features the iconic Canadian Maple Leaf as well as an explicit stamping of ‘9999 FINE GOLD 1/2 OZ OR PUR 9999’ (written in English and French respectively).
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.
*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.
