Micro-Engraved Maple Leaf
Security Mark

In 2013, the Royal Canadian Mint added a security feature to the 1oz. Canadian Gold Maple Leaf bullion coin's reverse side.

In 2014, the RCM started to add this feature to the reverse side of all the Canadian Maple Leaf bullion coins.

The RCM's security mark is a Micro-Engraved Maple Leaf design produced by the Mint’s use of laser technology.

Inside of the laser engraved maple leaf is the numeral “15” indicating the coin’s year of issue, which is more easily visible under magnification.
