These coins are precision-crafted to reach the heightened level of 9999 purity. The renown of our Gold Maple Leaf coins, launched in 1979, ensured the success of the Silver Maple Leaf bullion coin. Maple Leaf bullion coins struck by the Royal Canadian Mint are valued for their portability, liquidity and purity - guaranteed by the Government of Canada.
