In 1983, the Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin Series was in its fifth year of release. This year was especially significant as it represented the first full year in which the 1 oz gold coin was available with .9999 purity, and it was also the first complete year of fractional-ounce options in the series. Right now, 1983 1/10 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coins are available from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each 1983 1/10 oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin available here comes in a protective plastic flip. The 1/10 oz gold coin was first issued in this series in 1982, with the 1983 1/10 oz Gold Maple surging by nearly 60,000 coins in overall mintage compared to the debut issue.
The maple leaf became associated with Canada as early as the 1700s, when French Canadians adopted it as an emblem, but its status as a national symbol solidified in the 19th century. The leaf gained particular prominence when it was incorporated into military insignia during the First World War and appeared on Canadian coins.
The obverse of the 1983 Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coins displays Queen Elizabeth II. This is the second-generation effigy of the Queen, created in 1964 by Arnold Machin. It was adopted by the Royal Canadian Mint in 1979 when the Gold Maple Leaf debuted and remained on the coins until 1989. The portrait depicts the Queen in right-profile relief at the age of 39.
On the reverse, each 1983 1/10 oz Gold Maple Leaf features the sugar maple leaf design by Walter Ott. First introduced in 1979, this image has remained the central design across all Maple Leaf bullion coins, including gold, silver, platinum, and palladium.
