Buy 2018 One Twentieth Ounce Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coins
SD Bullion is proud to present one of the smaller
Gold Maple Leaf Coins issued this year – the 2018 1/20 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin. These coins join their heavier and lighter counterparts to mark yet another successful annual release under the Gold Maple Leaf Coin program.
The very first Gold Maple Leaf Coin (1 oz) was released in 1979 (however, the first 1/20 oz variant was released only in 1993) by the
Royal Canadian Mint. At the time, the precious metals bullion market was completely monopolized by the famed Krugerrands from South Africa. However, the Royal Canadian Mint surprised the market by launching the Gold Maple Leaf Coins, a series that is still respected and adored across the world.
Each of these coins contains 1/20 (0.05) troy ounces of 0.9999 pure gold. Moreover, the Canadian Government recognizes them as legal tender – assigning face values of $1 (CAD) to every 1/20 oz Gold Maple Leaf.
The reverses feature the brilliant image of a maple leaf – depicted in such painstaking detail that you are left mesmerized, following every vein imprinted into the leaf. Unique radial lines in the background are light-diffracting in nature. Hence, this design element aims to provide a layer of security against counterfeits, while lending a certain elegance to the design itself and enhancing it at the same time.
These 2018 1/20 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coins are ideal purchases for collectors who want to maintain full sets of coins from this series. Moreover, the 0.9999 pure gold content makes them extremely valuable gold investment vehicles for investors who want to diversify their portfolios with quality gold products.
