100 Francs CFA 10 Years Palladium Maple Leaf

The "Palladium Maple Leaf" branding on a gold coin issued by Mali is pure marketing fiction — palladium Maple Leafs are a Canadian series, and Mali has no connection to either. This belongs to a category of collector-targeted fantasy issues produced by European bullion dealers who lease the issuing authority of small nations, attach recognizable numismatic names to unrelated products, and sell the result as a legitimate commemorative. The Royal Canadian Mint has never authorized such derivative issues.
