In essence, the gold Maple Leaf coin contains barely any base metals. It is made almost exclusively of gold extracted from Canadian gold mines. This is why these coins are considered so valuable by serious collectors. Canadian Gold Maple Leafs, including the 1-ounce gold Maple Leaf coin, were first minted in 1979. This made big news in the coin-collecting world because, at that time, the only bullion coin that was available for collectors was the Krugerrand. The Krugerrand, though, came from South Africa, and during the Apartheid era, these coins were not easy to get.
Today, Canadian Gold Maple Leafs are available in a variety of denominations: 1/20 ounce, 1/10 ounce, ¼ ounce, ½ ounce and, of course, 1 ounce. The face value of these coins is mostly symbolic. The face values, in fact, are far lower than are the coins’ actual market value. If you’re interested in adding a 1-ounch gold Maple Leaf coin to your collection, make sure you don’t overpay.
