NOT NORMAL GOLD COINS!!!!

The types of Maple leaf coins canada's Royal Canadian Mint prefers to sell are 99.999%!

99.999% is created using lots of electricity and transferring atoms of gold one at a time in an electroplate bath.

It is very uncommon and very canadian.

Fort knox gold is 90% gold (not 99%, 90% because it is made of siezed gold dollars which are 10% (about) silver).

US gold coins are only 91.67% gold in 2018, but they give you enough gold in the coin to match a canadian coin (larger).

Canadian gold is perversely insanely PURE GOLD the likes of which is unheard of in international gold trade.
