Canadian Maple Leaf 1 oz Gold 2016
The Canadian Maple Leaf is one of the most recognisable investment coins in the world. The 2016 gold bullion coin is minted in a 1 troy ounce weight. The coin is distinguished by its classic design, perfect condition and high bullion sample - Au 9999. The Canadian Maple Leaf has been produced continuously since 1979 at the Royal Canadian Mint - a renowned and well-known Canadian mint among investors. This investment-grade product is guaranteed by the Government of Canada as to its legality, purity of bullion and origin of the metal, and is full legal tender in the issuer's country. Walter Otto is responsible for the design of the unchanging maple leaf image over the years. Importantly, the gold coins in the Canadian Maple Leaf collection have been part of the Bullion DNA programme since 2014. This programme provides security, and is a guarantee of the coins' originality. The obverse of the gold bullion coin bears the likeness of Queen Elizabeth II, and the face value. Since 2014, additional security is provided by the radial lines found on the background of the coin On the reverse is depicted the maple leaf, which is Canada's national symbol, as well as the proof in which the coin was struck and the country of issue. Since 2013, the mint has further protected the coins by adding in the lower right quadrant, a miniature maple leaf with a micro-engraved mark.Do you need help?
