Canadium Maple Leaf Platinum Bullion Coin
Minted from 1988-2002, each platinum
Maple Leaf bullion coin prominently
features Canada's national symbol, the
maple leaf, and an image of Britain's
Queen Elizabeth II. It is struck in
pure .9995 fine platinum and carries
a face value of 50 Canadian dollars.
Each coin is manufactured to meet the
high quality standards of the Royal
Canadian Mint, and the weight, purity
and face value of each coin are guaranteed
by the Canadian government. Platinum
Canadian Maple Leaf coins provide investors
with the means to diversify, balance
and stabilize a well-rounded investment
portfolio. These coins enable you to
take advantage of the significant price
appreciation potential that today's
platinum market can offer.
The Platinum Maple Leaf bullion coin
carries the same obverse and reverse
designs as the Gold and Silver Maple
Leaf coins. The obverse features a bust
of Queen Elizabeth II, whose design
changed in 1990 to feature a mature
portrait of the Queen. In both versions,
her name ('ELIZABETH II') appears at
top and the denomination of the coin
and the date of issue rest underneath
the bust.
