The year 2018 marked the 30th anniversary of our iconic Silver Maple Leaf bullion coin—the standard against which other silver bullion coins are measured. This very special numismatic release includes a Royal Canadian Mint first: incuse-struck images on both sides of this pure gold coin. Mintage for this coin is limited to 500. HST/GST exempt.
The Design:
The reverse features Walter Ott’s iconic maple leaf design from the original Silver Maple Leaf bullion coin release in 1988. 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 highest 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 “2018” and the face value of “200 DOLLARS.” The coin also bears commemorative edge lettering with the number “30” flanked on both sides by a maple leaf, and selective platinum plating on the iconic maple leaf.
Our first-ever double-incuse gold coin. This unique coin also features 30th anniversary edge lettering, and selective platinum plating.
