1988 Canada 1/4 oz Gold Maple Leaf BU
In 1988, the Royal Canadian Mint struck a notable entry in its famous bullion series, a ten-dollar face value coin containing a quarter ounce of extremely pure 0.9999 fine gold. This issue, which had a mintage of 380,000 pieces, stands as a testament to Canada's high standards of refining and minting, backed by the official guarantee of the sovereign nation. The obverse of this gold coin displays a right-facing portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Surrounding the royal likeness are the inscriptions denoting her name, the year of issue (1988), and the denomination of 10 Dollars. On the reverse, the design showcases a single, highly detailed maple leaf, the iconic national symbol of Canada. This side of the coin also displays the weight and purity, marked by the inscriptions indicating a quarter ounce of fine gold and the repeating 0.9999 purity designation, confirming its status as one of the purest gold coins in the world.
