Product Info
The Royal Canadian Mint introduced a platinum version of the Canadian Maple Leaf in 1988, the same year as the silver Maple Leaf. Each coin is 99.95% pure with a face value of $50 CAD.
The obverse features a bust of Queen Elizabeth II, whose design changed in 1990 to feature a mature portrait of the Queen. In both versions, her name (“ELIZABETH II’) appears at top and the denomination of the coin and the date of issue rest underneath the bust. On coins dated 2024 and beyond, the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati is featured instead.
The reverse depicts a maple leaf, the national symbol of Canada. The reverse also lists the name of the country and the amount and purity of the gold.
Platinum Maple Leaf coins are eligible for IRA purchases.
