Immigrate to Canada and pay attention to life in Canada: The maple leaf is a symbol of Canada, and the Royal Canadian Mint has produced countless gold, silver, commemorative, and circulating coins featuring various maple leaf designs. Since 1979, Canada has issued investment-grade maple leaf gold coins annually, which are recognized as one of the top five investment gold coins in the world. They have become a series with many varieties, among which the 1 OZ coin is favored by many investors. In addition to the 1 OZ investment maple leaf gold coin, the Royal Mint has also issued several special and commemorative 1 OZ maple leaf coins (which will be detailed in future opportunities). Here, we will introduce the 2015 Maple Leaf Gold Coin Set.
This set of coins does not belong to investment coins; it should be classified as commemorative, but it is extremely distinctive! The set consists of four coins, including 1 OZ (31.16 grams, diameter 30 mm, face value 50 CAD), 1/4 OZ (7.8 grams, diameter 20 mm, face value 10 CAD), 1/10 OZ (3.14 grams, diameter 16 mm, face value 5 CAD), and 1/20 OZ (1.58 grams, diameter 14.1 mm, face value 1 CAD), all made of 99.99% pure gold, designed by Lilyane Coulombe, with a mintage of 600 sets, each priced at $3,999.95 CAD.
Similar sets have been issued in the past, but the 2015 version has two unique features and creates two firsts. First is the design; in previous sets, the designs of various denominations were the same, while the 2015 version features four different designs that, when connected, resemble maple leaves dancing in the air. The second is that the edge of each 1 OZ coin is engraved with the total mintage and the serial number of each coin, making each 1 OZ coin unique and one-of-a-kind! With 600 sets, there are 600 different coins, which is also a first in the history of coin minting.
