Canada has a rich history of gold discoveries and refining, and the Royal Canadian Mint (RCM) is a prominent part of that legacy. Renowned worldwide for its excellence in gold bullion production, the RCM initially created gold bars for the United Kingdom before becoming famous for its Canadian Gold Maple Leaf coins. Occasionally, the RCM also crafts extremely rare .99999 pure Gold Maple Leafs, among the purest gold coins you can find. Right now, 2009 1 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coins are available from BullionMax.

During the 20th century, Canada’s gold industry saw significant growth. Major gold deposits in Ontario, Quebec, and the Northwest Territories led to the development of large-scale mining operations. Innovations like the cyanide process and electrolytic refining improved gold recovery and purity, making Canada one of the top gold producers globally. Today, advanced technologies are used in modern mining operations across the country, ensuring Canada’s place in the world’s gold market.

Each 2009 1 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin available here is in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, securely sealed in a Royal Canadian Mint assay card. The coin itself is housed in a protective capsule, which is then sealed within the card. The reverse side of the card provides the coin’s authenticity details in both English and French.

The obverse of the 2009 Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin features the right-profile portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. This effigy, created by Susanna Blunt in 2003, marks the fourth and final portrait of Queen Elizabeth II to appear on Canadian coinage.

On the reverse side of the 2009 1 oz Gold Maple Leafs, you’ll find the iconic sugar maple leaf, a design introduced by Walter Ott in 1979. This emblem has been a staple on all versions of the Gold Maple Leaf coins and has also appeared on Silver Maple, Platinum Maple, and Palladium Maple coins, as well as special editions like this .99999 pure gold Maple Leaf.
