1996 Canada 1/20 oz Gold Maple Leaf BU
In 1996, the Royal Canadian Mint produced a remarkably small yet highly detailed gold coin as part of its famous Maple Leaf series. Weighing just 1/20 of a troy ounce, this legal tender one dollar coin is struck in an extraordinary 0.9999 fine gold purity. The coin represents a brilliant combination of micro-engraving and security, backed fully by the Canadian government. The face of the coin features a right-facing portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, accompanied by the 1996 year of issue and the face value of 1 Dollar. On the opposite side, the iconic national symbol of Canada, the maple leaf, is rendered in crisp detail. Surrounding the central leaf are inscriptions indicating the country of origin, the weight of 1/20 ounce, and the exceptional four-nines purity level. A background of fine radial lines spans the fields, serving as an advanced security feature that catches the light and highlights the precision of the minting process.
