About Canadian Gold Coins

The Royal Canadian Mint, known for its iconic Gold Canadian Maple Leaf coins, regularly produces a diverse range of themed Canadian gold coins. As a member of the British Commonwealth, these coins typically feature portraits of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The Mint's gold coin designs span a wide variety of subjects, including natural scenery, wildlife, sports, and significant historical figures and events.

The Royal Canadian Mint (RCM), founded in 1908, has established itself as a leader in both circulating and collectible coinage. It also produces a diverse range of products for other nations as well. Known for its innovative techniques, the RCM introduced the first .9999 pure gold bullion coin in 1982 and the world's first million-dollar coin with .99999 purity in 2007. In 2014, the RCM further enhanced security for its Gold Maple Leaf series with DNA anti-counterfeiting technology, making it one of the most secure gold coin programs globally

Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coins

Collectors and investors from all over the world have focused their attention on the Canadian Gold Maple Leaf coin because it is an investment-grade gold coin that is highly sought after and appreciated. In addition to being a valuable addition to any investment portfolio, this iconic coin, which was produced by the Royal Canadian Mint, is renowned for its purity, beauty, and historical significance.

The Canadian Gold Maple Leaf is produced yearly in both bullion and proof formats. Most of the Gold Maple Leaf coins that become available each year are in brilliant uncirculated (BU) condition. BU coins show no signs of wear, though they may have some minor flaws like breaks in the luster, spotted surfaces, and marks from the minting process. Au Bullion offers both bullion and proof certified coins, including those from the Canadian Gold Maple Leaf series.

Canadian Commemorative Gold Coins

The gold coins from the Royal Canadian Mint's latest commemorative collection are highly sought after for several reasons. Like most commemorative coins, these have tightly controlled mintage figures that drive intense demand upon their release.

One of the key features driving this demand is the coins' limited availability. Mintage figures for commemorative gold coins can vary widely - some are produced in relatively higher quantities, around 50,000 coins, while others are minted in much smaller runs of just 100 or 200. This rarity makes the latter coins particularly appealing to collectors and investors, enhancing their desirability and potential value over time.
