1/2 troy ounce gold Maple Leaf coin

The 1/2 troy ounce gold Maple Leaf is the second largest coin in the very popular Maple Leaf series from The Royal Canadian Mint. These coins are among the most well-known and widely traded gold coins in the world. The 1/2 troy ounce coin is minted in pure gold with a purity of 99.99%.
 
The 1/2 troy ounce gold Maple Leaf is - just like the larger 1 troy ounce coin - very attractive to investors due to its high content of pure gold. This makes the coin very valuable and easily tradable worldwide.
 
The gold Maple Leafs from previous years are generally cheaper than the newly minted coins, while the weight and content remain the same. This allows buyers to receive proportionally more gold for their money. All gold Maple Leafs we sell are checked for authenticity, weight and content.

Gold Maple Leaf series

The Canadian Maple Leaf series was first issued in 1979. Then only the 1 troy ounce was available to investors. A few years later the smaller denominations followed, including this 1/2 troy ounce gold Maple Leaf coin. The Maple Leaf series has since become one of the most popular and globally known series among the gold investment coins. The Maple Leaf is issued as 1 troy ounce, 1/2 troy ounce, 1/4 troy ounce, 1/10 troy ounce and even 1/20 troy ounce gold coin. 
 
The design of the gold Maple Leafs has remained the same for years except for minor improvements, such as the addition of security features. Since the introduction, the obverse of the coin has been adorned by the Maple Leaf, the national symbol of Canada. A portrait of Queen Elizabeth II adorned the reverse up till 2023.
