Introducing the 2024 Canada 1/20 Oz Gold Maple Leaf (BU)

The Canadian Gold Maple Leaf coin stands as one of the most esteemed gold bullion coins globally, renowned for its iconic design and unmatched purity. Originally minted with .999 fine gold, its purity was elevated to .9999 in 1982.

In addition to the renowned 1 oz Gold Maple, the Royal Canadian Mint offers this twentieth-ounce coin, providing greater financial flexibility with a relatively low premium over the gold spot price. Notably, this marks the inaugural year featuring King Charles III’s portrait on the reverse.

The Royal Canadian mint introduced fractional sizes like the 1/2 oz coin in 1986 and additional denominations such as the 1/20 oz coin in 1993 and the 1 Gram coin in 2014.

For investors seeking portfolio diversification, Gold Maple Leaf Coins offer liquidity and global recognition as a premier gold product.

2024 Canada 1/20 Oz Gold Maple Leaf Design Highlights:

The series’ central motif is the sugar maple leaf, deeply ingrained in Canadian identity. The reverse prominently displays this maple leaf, accompanied by inscriptions in French and English indicating “CANADA,” “9999,” “FINE GOLD,” “1/20 Oz,” and “OR PUR.”

The new obverse design introduces King Charles III’s effigy for the first time in the series, featuring a left-profile bust alongside consistent inscriptions, including “CHARLES III,” “1 DOLLAR,” and “2024.”

Both background surfaces feature incised radial lines, with a small maple leaf situated on the lower right of the reverse design, featuring the last two digits of the mintage year as a security measure.

“Fractional gold” offers flexibility for investors and collectors, allowing for smaller investments. FMR Gold also offers other fractional Gold Maples, including 1/2 ounce, 1/4 ounce, and 1/10 ounce coins.
