Canadian Maple Leaf 1 oz Gold 1989 Proof
Canada: Maple Leaf 1 oz Gold 1989 Proof is a remarkable issue – the first collector's proof coin in the history of the iconic series. Released to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Maple Leaf, it stands as a true numismatic milestone from the Royal Canadian Mint.
Struck from .9999 fine gold, the coin weighs 1 troy ounce and has a diameter of approximately 30 mm. With a face value of 50 Canadian dollars and a limited mintage of only 7,000 pieces, it is a prized addition for both investors and collectors.
The proof finish features a brilliant mirrored background and frosted details, giving the coin a refined and elegant character – more than gold, it's a piece of Canadian heritage.
Obverse shows Queen Elizabeth II's portrait by Arnold Machin, surrounded by her name, title, year of issue, and denomination.
Reverse features the iconic maple leaf – Canada's national symbol – designed by Walter Ott, along with inscriptions indicating weight, gold purity, and country of origin.
Note: Coin is sold without certificate or presentation box.
