The 1/4 oz gold coin is one of the first fractional-ounce gold coins released in the Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Series. Contains 1/4th Troy Ounce of .9999 pure gold and is one of the most popular and affordable weights for investors. 

The Canadian Gold Maple Leaf is a gold bullion coin that has been issued annually by the Government of Canada since 1979. It is produced by the Royal Canadian Mint. The coins were initially available only in this weight with .999 gold fineness. In November 1982, the mint expanded the series with the introduction of 1/4 oz and 1/10 oz gold coins, while also boosting the gold content to .9999 fineness.

On the obverse of Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coins is an image of Queen Elizabeth II in right-profile relief. Created in 2003 by Susanna Blunt for the Royal Canadian Mint, it serves as the fourth-generation effigy for Canadian coins.

The reverse side of 1/4 oz Gold Maple Leaf Coins features the sugar maple leaf, the official emblem of Canada. This design found was created in 1979 for this series by Walter Ott. Both fields of the Canadian Gold Maple Leaf have radial lines in the background field, providing anti-counterfeiting security.
