About
Black rhodium and super incuse—a striking combination that leaves a deep impression.
For the 2023 edition, we’ve combined two stand-out features—black rhodium plating from 2020, and the 1.5 mm super incuse depth that set a new standard in 2021—to give our classic Gold Maple Leaf (GML) design a bolder, more modern edge.
This special edition of the GML is a study in contrasts: it mixes standard raised relief with a super-incused strike, black with gold, and a reverse proof finish (frosted field, brilliant relief) with the sleek satin look of black rhodium plating. The result is a fresh take on a classic design—it’s contemporary, it’s captivating, and it is sure to leave a lasting impression.
Black rhodium and super incuse—a bold combination for 2023.
Special features
- Fresh yet familiar. This 2023 edition features a new, innovative mix of two stand-out features: black rhodium plating from 2020, and the 1.5 mm incuse depth from the 2021 and 2022 coins. The perfect addition to your GML collection!
- Super incuse—a continuing tradition. In 2021, we took Walter Ott’s original art to new depths with the first ever Super Incuse Gold Maple Leaf (GML) coin. We did it again in 2022, and that extreme relief depth of 1.5 mm repeats on the 2023 edition, too.

Packaging

Features
Bold black rhodium
To emphasize the incuse strike and add a modern edge, the deeply recessed maple leaf has been intricately plated with black rhodium. Black rhodium plating also fills the field on the coin’s obverse, and it darkens both the coin’s edge and rim in order to boldly frame the reverse.
Reverse proof finish
This coin is a study in contrasts, especially with its lightly frosted field and brilliant relief. The reverse proof finish pairs beautifully with the satin sheen of black rhodium to achieve an ultra-modern look that exudes sophistication and truly makes the maple leaf pop!

Your coin’s reverse features Walter Ott’s iconic Gold Maple Leaf (GML) bullion coin design. Struck incuse, the distinctive sugar maple leaf is plated with black rhodium and reaches a depth of 1.5 millimetres. The coin’s reverse proof finish and its black rhodium-plated edge emphasize the brilliant relief, including the engraved words “CANADA”, “FINE GOLD 2 OZ OR PUR” and the purity standard of “9999” on the reverse. Black rhodium plating also fills the field on the obverse, which features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. The obverse also bears a special marking that includes four pearls symbolizing the four effigies that have graced Canadian coins and the double date of her reign.
