Gold Canadian Maple Leaf Coin

Also how does one check against receiving counterfeit Krugerrand / Canadian Gold Maple coins? What does assaying mean? Is it a guarantee?

zrs:

Not sealed for what purpose? The coins you
mentioned circulate through dealers and between
individuals and are accepted as such.

When gold is assayed, its fineness, or purity is
being measured, and stamped as authentic by
the company doing the assaying so as to let
anyone know the legitimacy of the gold content,
by weight.

See: www.buyinggoldbullioncoins.com - To Buy Canadian Maple Leaf Gold Coins.

As of today Sunday, the price of gold is $626.80 oz troy, the maple is pure 24K gold, so that's the price but you can never buy it for that price, always need to add at least $25 and also price depends if the coin is circulated or uncirculated, the Eagle and the Krugerrand worth more..☺

i know one is gold eagle in 91.67 and a gold maple leaf is 99.99 but the eagle weight's more due to copper and silver added to the coin where the maple leaf does not the are both 1 oz of fine gold, is what they say on the coin.. do they both have the same gold in them just the eagle has more other medals for hardness vs the maple leaf or does the maple leaf have more gold being 99.99?????


i am soo lost here.. help

The Canadian coin has more gold. They both have a true total weight of 1oz. The mix in the US coin means there is less total gold in the Eagle.
