The first gold maple coins were produced in 1979. The pioneering coins weighed 1 ounce and contained .999 pure gold. The coins bore an image of a maple leaf on the back and a younger image of Queen Elizabeth II when she was 39 years old.
Apart from the 1 oz. gold maple leaf coins, the Royal Canadian Mint produced coins in different denominations. By November 1982, the RCM raised gold purity levels to .9999. In May 2007, the mint produced the first set of six 100-kilogram coins. These were the largest coins to be minted apart from Perth Mint’s 1-ton single gold Kangaroo coin.
The design of gold Canadian maple leaf coins has remained largely unchanged from the time they were minted for the first time. Canadian maple leaf coins have remained stable in design compared to other coins whose designs change rapidly like the Chinese Gold Panda and the Australian Kangaroo.
