The year 2019 marks the 40th anniversary of our iconic Gold Maple Leaf bullion coin—the standard against which other gold bullion coins are measured. This very special numismatic release includes a Royal Canadian Mint exclusive: incuse-struck images on both sides of this pure gold coin.
The reverse features Walter Ott’s iconic maple leaf design from the original Gold Maple Leaf bullion coin released in 1979. The realistic sugar maple leaf is incuse-struck into the surface of the coin. The reverse features the words “CANADA” and “FINE GOLD 1 OZ OR PUR” as well as the purity standard of “99999”. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. Her Majesty’s image is incuse-struck. The obverse features the date “2019” and the face value of “200 DOLLARS”. The coin also bears commemorative edge lettering with the number “40” flanked on both sides by a maple leaf, and selective gold plating on the iconic maple leaf.
