Canada goes 'thicc' with an ultra-pure, limited, ten-kilogram Gold Maple Leaf bullion coin Just a day after the Royal Mint released the biggest gold coin in its 1100 year history - a James Bond proof jobbie weighing 7kg - the Royal Canadian Mint debuts a new Gold Maple Leaf (GML) coin that chunks the scales at a cool ten kilos. This isn't the first time the RCM has issued [...]
Canada adds incuse strike Maple Leaf bullion variants and a new gold Call of the Wild coin One of the very biggest of the world's bullion coins, the Royal Canadian Mint's Maple Leaf continues to sell in huge numbers, but has very limited appeal to those more interested in the current trend towards limited mintage designs. That's only to be expected when anything becomes so ubiquitous, so [...]
Silver Maple Leaf is 30 years old and the mint celebrates with limited bullion variants First launched in 1988, the Silver Maple Leaf (SML) has gone on to become the second best selling silver bullion coin on the market, tailing just behind the American Silver Eagle (ASE). A clean and simple design, depicting just a maple leaf against a plain background, the coin has remained relatively unchanged [...]
Royal Canadian Mint to debut a five-ounce domed silver Maple Leaf coin. MDM Exclusive. UPDATE: Video has been removed by MDM. Apparently the embargo is April 4th but this look slike a coin worth waiting for. We'll update when availability changes. There's never a shortage of maple leaf coins from the Royal Canadian Mint. Over the years there have been so many variations that we've lost [...]
The worlds second most popular silver bullion coin, the Royal Canadian Mints ubiquitous Silver Maple Leaf (SML), has a very limited appeal to collectors for two main reasons. Firstly, there are quite literally tens of millions of them, meaning rarity play no part in their numismatic appreciation. Secondly, the design never really changes in a fundamental way. A way around this has been the production of limited runs of 'privy-mark' versions. [...]
The worlds second biggest selling silver bullion coin after the ubiquitous American Silver Eagle (ASE), the Canadian Silver Maple Leaf can be found and purchased just about everywhere silver coins are sold. Instantly recognisable, they're seen as one of those coins that can be stacked in huge numbers because of the very low premium over the spot price of silver. The downside for collectors is that the coin, like the ASE and the Austrian [...]
It's fair to say here at AgAuNEWS that we do give off a little sigh every time another coin with a Maple Leaf on it appears for sale at the Royal Canadian Mints website. There are literally dozens of coin designs and formats released every year adorned with the Canadian national symbol and while it is a fine, well recognised symbol, you can't help but think there aren't many variations on the theme left [...]
One of the most recognisable symbols in the world, the Canadian Maple Leaf, immediately evokes the North American nation of Canada. It's appeared on countless coins over the last few decades, including huge numbers of precious metal ones issued by the Royal Canadian Mint. The RCM have been experimenting with fresh implementations of the symbol for many years and with varying degrees of success, but now European coin producer Modern Numismatics International (MNI) have [...]
The Royal Canadian Mint kicks off 2015 in the style to which we've become accustomed; namely lots of coins. As is usually the case, we've divided up the releases into three posts for easier reading. Yesterday saw the release of the Sir John Alexander Macdonald trio of coins, and earlier today we posted up the first batch of the rest of them. Here we have the remaining coins. With it being the 50th [...]
SILVER MAPLE LEAF by the Royal Canadian Mint The Canadian Silver Maple Leaf is a bullion coin issued annually by the government of Canada and minted by the Royal Canadian Mint (RCM). First hitting the market in 1988, the now iconic design has seen huge sales, second only the the American Silver Eagle. Like the Eagle, it has a limited numismatic value compared to most other silver bullion coins due [...]
Germania Mint wraps up a second of its world-building bullion range, as the Beech Leaf concludes Mythical Forest After recently expressing sadness at the wrapping up of Germania Mint's 'Allegories' bullion series, we're back doing the same for their pretty 'Mythical Forest' series as well. The mint has done a top job crafting out a world based around the historical region of Germania, with multiple interwoven series of bullion coins, along [...]
Another bumper release run in June from the most prolific mint around, the Royal Canadian. Over a dozen new coins have debuted, plus a couple of new additions to series we've already covered so we'll split them up into two seperate posts. This post will cover an RCM staple, the Maple Leaf themed coin, something we feel is a little too prolific personally, but they do seem to sell so we [...]
The European Mint adds new annual issues to the five silver bullion coin series it started in 2022 In March 2022, European Mint debuted five new bullion coins, offering a variety of themes, but headlined by a focus on the national identities of countries in the British Isles, namely Ireland and Wales. Alongside those were pirate and crypto designs. All were an ounce in weight, struck in 0.9999 silver, and with [...]
GERMANIA WORLD BULLION COIN RANGES by Germania Mint While we have full bullion profiles of both Germania, and Allegories, the whole numismatic world that Germania Mint is building is quite a bit wider than that. There are a few currently smaller ranges that are even more interesting, bringing the current total up to five. This summary of them is not meant to be an exhaustive look at them, but rather [...]
King Charles III appears on his first bullion coin with the release of the Royal Mint's perennial Britannia range It isn't long into 2023 that our wait for King Charles III effigy bullion coins has been satiated, and what better way than that most iconic of designs, the Royal Mint Britannia. A staple of the bullion market for decades, it, along with the American Eagle, Canadian Maple Leaf, and a select few [...]
