The Canadian Gold Maple Leaf is one of the world’s most recognized and highly sought-after bullion coins. Launched in 1979, this series predates popular programs like the Chinese Panda, American Eagle, Australian Kangaroo, and British Britannia. Only the South African Krugerrand has a longer history.

The sugar maple leaf is not only a national symbol but also a nod to Canada’s economic heritage. As the world’s leading producer of maple syrup, provinces such as Quebec, Ontario, and New Brunswick celebrate the annual harvest with festivals, parades, and community events that highlight the cultural and economic significance of this iconic tree.
The obverse of the 2025 coin features a left-profile portrait of King Charles III, designed by Steven Rosati in 2024. This marks only the second year that Charles III has appeared on the Canadian Maple Leaf series, following Queen Elizabeth II’s long tenure as the featured monarch.
On the reverse, the classic sugar maple leaf design continues to serve as a hallmark of the series. Originally created by Walter Ott in 1979, this design has consistently appeared on all Gold Maple Leaf coins, symbolizing both Canada’s natural heritage and its commitment to quality bullion coinage.
