{{/presale}} {{#promotion_on}}The Royal Canadian Mint introduced the Gold Maple Leaf Series in 1979, making it one of the earliest modern gold bullion coins available. By 1982, it became the first series to feature 24-karat gold. To celebrate the programs 10th anniversary, the mint issued special Proof Gold Maple Leafs in 1989. Now, 1989 1 oz Proof Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coins are available from BGASC.
Highlights:
All 1989 1 oz Proof Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coins in this listing arrive with protective plastic capsules only. Their proof finish uses frosted design elements set against mirrored backgrounds for a sharp visual effect. The 1989 issue is also the final release to display the second-generation portrait of Queen Elizabeth II.
Obverse
On the obverse side of the 1989 Proof Canadian Gold Maple Leaf is Arnold Machins second-generation portrait of Her Majesty. Shown in right-profile, this image depicts the Queen at age 39 as she appeared when Machin created this design in 1965. It served as the first effigy for the Gold Maple Leaf series and was used through 1989.
Reverse
The reverse of the 1989 1 oz Proof Gold Maple Leaf shows the well-known sugar maple leaf. Walter Ott designed this realistic image in 1979, and it has appeared on all Maple Leaf bullion coins since the series began.
History
In 1989, the Canadian Gold Maple Leaf proof lineup featured coins in 1 oz, 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, and 1/10 oz weights. These coins marked the 10th anniversary of the series and were available in full sets with coordinated presentation, as well as individually packaged options. The 1 oz Proof Gold Maple Leaf was one of the coins released individually.
