Talk:Canadian Gold Maple Leaf

message: Was this coin produced for the 15th anniversary? 1994 was 15 years after 1979 and it was never produced again. Seems more likely than it being produced for jewelry. Brted (talk) 17:42, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

message: Wondering why the image for 1990–2004 gold coin reverse (in table) looks like a loonie (dollar coin)...  Astrophil 18:00, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

text: I don't think any of the pictures currently in the table are actually of maple leaf coins. The 1990-2004 reverse looks like a loonie to my eye, and the other two appear to be quarters, nickels or dimes. A 1999 1 oz obverse is pictured at the start of the article and reads "Elizabeth II 50 dollars 1999", but all the coins pictured in the table read "Elizabeth II D.G. Regina". I can replace the 1990-2004 image with the 1999 maple obverse, but I don't know where there might be images of the other obverses. In the meantime, the other images do at least show the correct queen portraits.--Eloil 19:39, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Done. I removed the big 1999 obverse from the start of the article so the same image didn't appear twice.--Eloil 19:59, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

message: A few years ago I saw a television special that aired in the U.S. which discussed the minting of gold coins at the Canadian mint including the holographic maple leaf.  I would like to track down that program but don't recall what network or channel broadcast the program or the date of airing.  Most likely the program appeared on Discovery, Science Channel, TLC, or Nova.

message: This article currently contains a lot of material on the silver, platinum and palladium maple leaf coins. I think a general article on the maple leaf series might be a better place for a lot of this stuff, with Canadian Gold Maple Leaf left to contain only information on the gold version. Maple Leaf (coin) is now a redirect here, but it was once a seperate article before it was merged into this one. It seems like a good spot for a general Maple Leaf article. Canadian Platinum Maple Leaf and Canadian Palladium Maple Leaf are both currently empty, but I may start those articles if I get around to it.--Eloil 21:19, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Elizabeth 65.gif

message: The article at present states the dimensions of this mega coin to be 50 cm diameter (25 cm radius), and 3 cm thick.  Assuming a value for Π of, let's say, 3.14159, then this would yield a volume of (Π.r2.t) 5,890.48125 cm³.  If we assume a specific density of 19.3 g/cm³, then this yields a weight of 113,686.288125 g, or, more conveniently, 113.686288125 kg.  This is 13.686288125 kg heavier than the stated weight of 100 kg, a discrepancy of about 13.7%.  If true, this maybe part of the reason for the (apparently) missing gold in an audit of the Canadian Mint recently (or, maybe not)...  Anyway, I invested a little time trying specific dimensions of this mega coin (including the mint.ca website), but ran out of time...  Hopefully someone can find the precise specifications of this amazing coin (preferably with web-references).
