The 1/2 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf is a highly sought-after gold bullion coin that has been minted by the Royal Canadian Mint since 1979. Struck from 24-karat (99.99% pure) gold, this coin is one of the purest gold coins available in the world. The 1/2 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf is a smaller size compared to the 1 oz version makes it more affordable and easier to store.
The obverse features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II or King Charles III, along with the face value of 20 Canadian dollars and the year of mintage. The reverse showcases a beautifully detailed image of a single maple leaf, which is Canada’s national symbol. The 2024 and newer versions of the coin feature a unique light-diffracting pattern of radial lines on the reverse, making the coins harder to duplicate and providing an additional measure of security.
The Canadian Gold Maple Leaf is a popular choice among investors and collectors due to its high purity, recognizable design, and government backing. Whether you are looking to diversify your investment portfolio or add a unique coin to your collection, the 1/2 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf is an excellent option.
