1/4 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf

The 1/4 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin is a fractional-sized version of Canada’s premier gold bullion series, offering the same world-class purity and craftsmanship as the full-ounce coin in a more affordable and flexible format. First introduced in 1982 by the Royal Canadian Mint, the 1/4 oz Gold Maple Leaf quickly became a popular option for those seeking smaller quantities of high-purity gold backed by a sovereign government. With its .9999 fine gold content and globally recognized design, it remains a favorite among both collectors and those seeking a tangible store of value.

Key Features:

• Purity: Each 1/4 oz Gold Maple Leaf is struck from 99.99% pure gold (24 karats), with no alloy or filler metals added. Containing 0.25 troy ounces of fine gold, it ranks among the purest fractional gold coins on the market.

• Design: The obverse features a right-facing portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, with the coin’s denomination and year of issue inscribed. The reverse displays Canada’s iconic sugar maple leaf, rendered in exquisite detail and accompanied by inscriptions denoting the coin’s country of origin, weight, and purity in both English and French. Since 2013, the Royal Canadian Mint has incorporated advanced security features—including radial lines and a micro-engraved maple leaf—making this coin one of the most secure bullion products worldwide.

• Denomination: The coin carries a face value of 10 Canadian dollars (CAD), underscoring its status as legal tender issued by the Government of Canada. While primarily valued for its gold content, the face value confirms its official status as a sovereign coin.

• IRA Eligibility: The 1/4 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf meets IRS requirements for inclusion in self-directed Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) in the United States. With its .9999 purity and strong market recognition, it is a reliable option for those incorporating physical gold into their long-term savings strategy.

Trusted, beautifully struck, and widely recognized, the 1/4 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin offers unmatched purity and credibility in a convenient, fractional format—making it an ideal choice for both seasoned gold holders and first-time buyers.
