2019 25-Cent Pure Gold Coin 40th Anniversary of the Gold Maple Leaf

The year 2019 marks the 40th anniversary of the Royal Canadian Mint's iconic gold maple leaf  bullion coin—the standard against which other gold bullion coins are measured. This special numismatic release includes the first time the Royal Canadian Mint has offered a 0.5 gram gold coin with the iconic GML design, making Canada's most iconic gold coin both collectible and affordable. The mintage of this coin is 40,000.

The reverse design features Walter Ott's iconic maple leaf design from the original gold maple leaf bullion coin released in 1979. The realistic sugar maple leaf is intricately engraved to capture all the fine details at such a small size. The reverse features the words "Canada" and "fine gold 25 cents or pur" as well as the purity standard of "9999" and the double date of "1979–2019." The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
