1989 Canada 1 oz Proof Gold Maple Leaf (w/Box & COA)
In 1989, the Royal Canadian Mint released a special proof edition of its signature gold bullion coin. Struck in one troy ounce of exceptionally pure 0.9999 fine gold, this fifty-dollar denomination coin represents a pinnacle of Canadian minting craftsmanship. The Canadian government backs this sovereign issue, which had a limited mintage of 17,781 pieces. The obverse of the coin showcases a right-facing portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Surrounding her likeness are the inscriptions denoting her name, the face value of 50 Dollars, and the 1989 year of issue. The design is clean and elegant, characteristic of Canada's classic coinage. The reverse is dedicated to the national symbol of Canada, featuring a highly detailed, single maple leaf. This side of the coin also displays the purity of the metal, marked as 9999, alongside the weight of one ounce of fine gold. The proof finish enhances the design, creating a beautiful contrast between the frosted details and the mirror-like background.
