The new obverse design introduces King Charles III’s left-profile bust, accompanied by inscriptions of “CHARLES III,” “20 DOLLARS,” and “2024.”
Both surfaces feature radial lines, with a small maple leaf nestled below the primary design, bearing the last two digits of the mintage year as a security feature.
Following the series’ debut with one-troy-ounce coins in 1979, fractional sizes like the 2024 1/2 oz Gold Maple Leaf expanded the collection. This coin, made of 99.99% pure gold, holds a face value of CAD 20, fully guaranteed by the Canadian Government.
