| Additional information |
The "Incused" designation refers to a deliberate design choice by the Royal Canadian Mint to reverse the relief of the Maple Leaf motif, pressing it into the coin's surface rather than raising it — a technique that distinguishes this fractional series from standard bullion issues and creates a notably different surface interaction with light. The incused field also eliminates the recessed background that accumulates contact marks on conventional strikes, a practical consideration for investors handling raw coins.
The .9999 fineness — four nines — was first achieved by the RCM in 1982 and remains one of the highest purity benchmarks in sovereign gold coin production.
