The Canadian maple leaf gold coins are a great way to invest in gold when you’re just starting out. My grandfather always encouraged investing in gold and silver, and I began quite early, in my teens investing in gold bullion and silver bullion.
The Canadian Maple leaf coin is a 24 karat gold coin which is a competitor with the Gold eagle but I think more closely the American Buffalo gold coin. The 24 karat gold coins are very soft though. You would need to keep these coins encased to protect them from damage.
There seems to be a strong following of these Maples because they are so popular. They are easily traded and because of their popularity they make great sense as a investment coin.
