MINED IN CANADA. REFINED IN CANADA. MINTED IN CANADA. A trusted investment piece since 1999, the Royal Canadian Mint’s renowned 1 oz gold bar includes the latest, most advanced security enhancements for 2025. Expect the same unsurpassed quality and guaranteed craftsmanship as in all years past, including a market-leading purity (.9999 fine) that is a testament to the Mint’s world-famous minting and refining capabilities. For 2025 the Royal Canadian Mint has adjusted the frosting on the 1 oz bar to enhance the visual separation between the engraved elements and the highly polished background. State-of-the-art security features include a uniform line pattern that adds a sleek contemporary design element to both the obverse and reverse. Using the same award-winning technology found on Canada’s $1 and $2 coins, each gold bar features two textured maple leaf security marks, micro-engraved with laser technology and visible only under magnification. Etched within this maple leaf are two digits indicating the bar’s production year. Each 1 oz. gold bar comes sealed in newly redesigned tamper-evident packaging that highlights the iconic sugar maple (Acer saccharum) leaf. (GBR1)
