5 Dollars - Elizabeth II Fractional GML, 1⁄10 oz

Canada's .9999 fine gold fractional series expanded significantly in the early 2010s as the Royal Canadian Mint aggressively pursued the bullion market against competitors like the Austrian Mint and Perth Mint. The "GML" designation — Gold Maple Leaf — distinguishes the standard bullion strikes from the collector-oriented proof and specimen issues produced concurrently, though both share the same extraordinary fineness that the RCM first achieved with the one-ounce Maple Leaf in 1982, years before most sovereign mints considered .9999 attainable at scale.

By 2013, the RCM had also introduced radial line security fields to combat counterfeiting, a problem that had become acute in the Asian secondary market.
