2021 $50 Gold Maple Leaf: W Mint Mark - Pure Gold Coin (No Certificate)

Although the Royal Canadian Mint produces more than a million regular one ounce Maple Leaf fine gold bullion coins each year, just 500 of this unusual collector edition will be produced. While bullion coins are normally produced with a standard design and finish at the mint’s Ottawa facility, this is only the second time a fine gold collector edition has been produced at the mint’s facility in Winnipeg, Manitoba. The coin includes a “W” mint mark to highlight that the coin was struck in Winnipeg and features a unique burnished finish giving it a matte appearance. The background field includes straight lines meeting on an angle in the centre inspired by striking exterior of the mint’s Winnipeg facility. HST/GST exempt.
