Introduced in 1979, the Canadian Gold Maple Leaf is one of the longest-running gold bullion coins in the world, second in age only to the Krugerrand. The series started with just a single size but now offers six weights each year. Among these, the 1 oz coin is the most widely collected and traded. Right now, BullionMax offers the 2026 1/20 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin.

Coin Highlights:

• Comes with an individual flip or a sealed plastic sheet of 40 coins!
• 47th date in the Gold Maple Leaf Series!
• Contains 1/20 troy oz of .9999 pure gold in BU condition.
• The face value of $1 (CAD) is fully backed by the Canadian government.
• On the obverse is King Charles III.
• The reverse features the sugar maple leaf.

Each year, sugar maple trees drop their leaves in the fall, leaving the trees bare through the winter months. As the seasons change, the leaves on the forest floor shift from bright autumn shades to brown before returning nutrients to the soil. This cycle repeats each year, with variations in timing and color depending on weather and climate conditions.

All 2026 1/20 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coins are offered in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. Each coin comes individually packaged in a protective flip, or in sealed plastic sheets of 40 coins for larger purchases. The Royal Canadian Mint first released the 1/20 oz coin option in 1993.

The obverse of the 2026 Canadian Gold Maple Leaf features the new portrait of King Charles III. Designed by Canadian artist Steven Rosati, the left-facing portrait shows the King without a crown. This marks only the third time in history that a Canadian artist has created a royal effigy for the nation’s coins.

On the reverse side of the 2026 1/20 oz Gold Maple Leaf, Walter Ott’s classic sugar maple leaf design appears once again. First introduced in 1979, this design is a unifying element of the entire Maple Leaf bullion program, which includes gold, silver, platinum, and palladium coins.
