Common Questions About Gold Canadian Maple Leafs
How pure is a Gold Canadian Maple Leaf compared to other gold coins?
Gold Canadian Maple Leafs are 99.99% pure gold (24-karat), making them among the purest gold bullion coins available. This exceeds American Gold Eagles (91.67% pure), Krugerrands (91.67% pure), and matches Austrian Philharmonics and Australian Kangaroos. The exceptional purity means you get more actual gold content per coin, though the softer 24-karat gold requires careful handling.
What security features do Gold Maple Leafs have?
Modern Gold Maple Leafs feature advanced security including Bullion DNA™ technology with unique micro-engraved marks readable by special devices, precision radial lines creating light-diffracting patterns, and micro-engraved privy marks with year dates visible only under magnification. These features make Canadian Maple Leafs virtually impossible to counterfeit.
