Scrap Gold Buyers purchases Canadian Gold Maple Leaf
The Canadian Gold Maple Leaf is the official bullion gold coin of Canada and is produced by the Royal Canadian Mint. The brainchild of Walter Ott, it is the purest gold coin of regular issue in the world, with a gold content of .9999 millesimal fineness (24 carats). That is, it contains virtually no base metals at all – only gold exclusively from gold mines in Canada.
Coins minted between 1979 and 1981 have gold content of .999.
The coin was first introduced in 1979. At that time, the only available bullion coin was the Krugerrand, which was not widely available because of an economic boycott of apartheid-era South Africa.
The coin is offered in 1/20 oz, 1/10 oz, 1/4 oz, 1/2 oz, and 1 oz denominations and is guaranteed to contain the stated amount (in troy ounces) of .9999 fine gold (24 carat). The coins have legal tender status in Canada, but as is often the case with bullion coins, the face values of these coins (C$1, C$5, C$10, C$20 and C$50) are purely symbolic and do not reflect their true value.
The 1/20, 1/10, 1/4, and 1/2 troy oz coins are identical in design to the 1 troy oz coin except for the markings on the obverse and reverse sides that indicate the weight and face value of the coin Starting in 1988, Maple Leaf coins have also been struck in .9995-fine platinum, having the same weights and face values as the gold coins.
Since 1988, a one ounce .9999-fine silver Maple Leaf has also been struck, with a face value of 5 dollars. In 2005, a .9995-fine palladium Maple Leaf 1 oz coin was introduced, with a face value of 50 dollars.

WHAT CUSTOMERS SAY
Bill Jenkins
I was really frustrated to see that Cash4Gold could offer a 20% discount over Christmas which told me that they normally rip me off for exactly that amount more then their usual commission! What a delight, having compared with everyone else, to get the BEST pricing from this company. It paid for Christmas. Money in the bank the next day. Thank you and I am now recommending you to all my friends. Good luck to you all.

After looking at many companies and reading lots of bad press, I decided to visit the Scrap Gold receiving centre in Camberley. The service was brilliant, the money was as on their website and money was transferred into my account within minutes. Brilliant . Adrian Clarke Fleet, Hampshire
