For 2020, our Ottawa and Winnipeg facilities joined forces to create the first "made in Manitoba" numismatic tribute to our world-renowned Gold Maple Leaf (GML) bullion coin. It was the first puregold numismatic coin struck at our Winnipeg facility, and its distinctive "W" mint mark and burnished (matte) finish set it apart. You'll find the same Gold Maple Leaf design and "W" (Winnipeg) mint mark on this 2021 collectible, but with a tailored specimen finish that was inspiredby the striking exterior of our Winnipeg facility.

It's a "made in Manitoba" Gold Maple Leaf, now in a stunning new finish. Order today!

Design
Your coin's reverse reproduces the iconic maple leaf from the 1979 Gold Maple Leaf bullion coin designed by Master Engraver Walter Ott; to this day, the design remains in use on all Maple Leaf bullion coins. The reverse features a "W" mint mark to the left of the leaf stem, indicating that this numismatic coin was struck at our Winnipeg facility rather than in Ottawa, where our numismatic coins are typically struck. On both the reverse and obverse, the coin's tailored specimen finish was inspired by our Winnipeg facility's striking exterior,with straight lines in the background meeting on  an angle in the centre. The obverse includes the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
