1991 Canada 1 oz Platinum Maple Leaf BU
In 1991, the Royal Canadian Mint produced a remarkable platinum coin featuring one of the most recognizable national symbols in the world. Struck in one troy ounce of highly refined 0.9995 fine platinum, this fifty-dollar denomination coin represents a notable moment in modern Canadian coining history, with a limited production run of just 31,900 pieces. The obverse of the coin displays the right-facing profile of Queen Elizabeth II, a classic portrait created by artist Ian Rank-Broadley. Accompanying the royal likeness are the inscriptions for the year of issue, 1991, and the official face value of 50 dollars. This side establishes the coin's status as a sovereign issue backed by the government of Canada. On the reverse, a detailed and prominent single maple leaf serves as the central focus. This side also displays the essential specifications of the piece, noting both the weight and the high purity of the precious metal, marked in English and French as 1 oz of pure platinum.
