| Aanvullende informatie |
Canada's platinum maple leaf series launched in 1988, making the Royal Canadian Mint one of the earliest sovereign issuers to produce a platinum bullion coin for the international investment market — ahead of the United States Mint's platinum eagle by nearly a decade. The .9995 fineness specification was a deliberate commercial decision, positioning the coin fractionally purer than most competing platinum products available at the time.
Platinum spot prices collapsed sharply in the early 1990s following reduced industrial demand and increased Russian export supply, meaning buyers of these dates acquired them at historically depressed metal prices.
