Since 1912, Canada has issued its own gold coins. If you include the issues from British Columbia and Newfoundland from 1862 then Canada has been issuing gold coins for quite some time. The gold bullion maple leaf series was introduced in 1979 as one ounce and fractional weights.

This is one of the most popular and most commercial and profitable investment among gold investors, dealers and collectors. This line of Canadian Gold Coins is perceived to be the match for America’s Gold Eagle Bullion and Europe’s Austrian Philharmonic Gold Coin.

However, this comparison is denied by Canadian Gold Coins due to the fact that the Canadian Maple Leaf is purely made- up of 99.99 gold. On the other hand, the American Gold Eagle Bullion contains a mixture of copper and silver. With this regard, the Canadian Maple Leaf Gold Coin is regarded to be the purest of all gold coins in the world.

However, due to its 24- karat nature, these Canadian Gold Coins are undoubtedly prone to wear easily than that of other gold bullion coins. They are more likely to bend over time. But the “not durable” side of these Canadian Maple Leaf Coins is not an issue in the market, whereas this coin is just for a simple collector’s item and not for currency circulation.

These Canadian Gold Coins have become entirely popular all over the world gold market mainly because of having a pure gold content. And with that, the stated content is really accurate and reliable. For most collectors, they would simply be turned on with a coin’s purity and that would be more than enough to treasure them or invest into these coins. The Canadian Maple Leaf Gold Coin is truly the world’s finest!
