2004 1/10 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin

The Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin Series debuted in 1979 as a refined alternative to the South African Krugerrand. During that time, sanctions limited the availability of the Krugerrand in many Western nations, making room for the Gold Maple Leaf to gain popularity. It also became the first 24-karat gold bullion coin in the world. Today, 2004 1/10 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coins are available online from BGASC. **Highlights:** - **Coins arrive inside protective plastic!** - **26th date in the Gold Maple Leaf Series!** - Contains 1/10 Troy oz of .9999 pure gold. - Issued a face value of $5 (CAD) by Canada. - The obverse side features a bust of Queen Elizabeth II. - On the reverse is the sugar maple leaf. Each 2004 1/10 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin comes in protective plastic to help preserve its Brilliant Uncirculated condition. Initially, the Gold Maple Leaf Series was only offered in a 1 oz gold weight. By late 1982, the Royal Canadian Mint expanded the series to include fractional weights, with the 1/10 oz and 1/4 oz gold coins being the first additions. **Obverse** The obverse of 2004 1/10 oz Gold Maple Leaf Coins includes a depiction of Queen Elizabeth II. This design, created by Susanna Blunt, made its debut in 2003 and portrays the Queen at age 79 in a right-profile relief. Unlike previous portraits, this version is notable for its simplicity, as it shows Her Majesty without a crown or tiara. The 2004 Gold Maple Leaf was the first in the series to feature this new effigy. **Reverse** The reverse of the 2004 Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coins features the sugar maple leaf, a cherished symbol of Canadian heritage. The maple leaf embodies themes of unity, pride, and a connection to the countrys natural beauty, making it one of the most recognizable symbols of Canada worldwide. **History** Designed by Walter Ott, the maple leaf on the reverse is a masterpiece of precision and artistry. The attention to detail in the veining and texture of the leaf enhances its visual appeal while also making it difficult to counterfeit. This design has remained consistent across the entire Gold Maple Leaf Series. **Ordering** If you have any questions about this product, BGASC customer service is available at 888-992-4272.
