I buy gold and other assets over time, and then buy more as price and interest allow. If you want to know more about buying gold coins, that is my primary focus here. Cheers!

Take care!
It's cool that the RCM reached out to you. I really like the gold Maple and I need more of them however it's hard to shake my love for Britannias and Kangaroos. There is a credible case to be made for the Maple to be the most utilitarian gold coin on a global level.
I was excited to hear from them because it’s so high on my list. Cheers!
@@2is1gold If you can, please tell them to do a (1/4 ,1 ounce gold, 1 ounce 10 ounce silver) polar bear coin with a changing annual design ala the Perth Mint.
Brit is definitely the best looking
Gold is gold, that's all that matters if you are trying to preserve your investment. If you're a collector then you have an emotional and sentimental component that you are paying extra for and HOPING will appreciate.
Thanks for talking about my favourite Gold coin too. I'm in Canada so all pros for me, but it's cool to see our American brothers have love for our Royal Mint and Canadian Maple. Great work, love your videos.
Thanks!
This video convinced me to get a gold maple for my first gold coin. Thanks for sharing
I'm Canadian and for me the best looking modern gold bullion coin is the Buffalo. That said, most of my gold has a Maple leaf on it. Thanks!
The grass is always greener!
I like the Buffalo also but hate the wicked finning those coins have these days. The US mint is putting out some low quality stuff these days
I fully agree. However, most of my gold coins are proof RCM bought on the after market for the same price per ounce as the Maple. I do love the Buffaloes and have most years.
I live in the United States, and I personally do not think that the Buffalo can even hold a candle to the Gold Maple Leaf. That said, it's always nice to have different options.
Buffalo looks awful vs the Maple. This of course my opinion as a Nicaraguan collector
Interesting that you made this video on the Maple Leaf. I just purchased a Maple one day ago from my local coin dealer. It is my first Maple. The more I looked at it, the more I saw the true quality of this coin!! It is just amazing. I really like the micro leaf.
That caught my eye first. Then, I noticed the micro radials. It is just beautiful 😍. I'm sure this will not be my last Maple!
They’re mesmerizing coins.
How much did you buy it for in terms of premium over spot ?
@@user-kj6jl9el1j Over the past year, I've been buying the Maple at 3 1/2% over spot at my LCS. Online, you can consistently find it between 3 and 4 percent.
I absolutely love products from the Royal Canadian Mint!
They get it right for sure! 🤩
@@2is1goldI think it's awesome that they've noticed your channel and reached out!!!
Why is the reply below showing up here, YT?
I bought one from Costco and got it for spot price (after Costco’s 2% cash back) a week before the 2150 price spike. Great deal on my favourite coin
Wow!
Wait a second... costco? Costco sells gold?!
Walmart has silver and gold on website
I'm in Europe and over here the price difference between a Maple and an American 1oz. coin (doesn't matter if Eagle or Buffalo) is quite high. When you need to sell them, though, you generally get Spot for any of these coins. Added to the fact that the Maple is stunning, I think it's a no brainer which gold coin I typically go for. ;)
You are absolutely right + the fact that in my country for example almost all the stackers don't want to buy usa coins because of the....let's say the unpopularity of the usa government and etc.
Yeah, smart.
It's a close race between Maple and Britannia for me in Germany. Both have small premiums, tiny spread, excellent optics and are well regarded.
@@citronskisame for me. I also prefer one of these.
You're spot on, pun intended, except that I find the Maple Leaf boring on one side and just offensive on the other. The best you will get for selling any sovereign coin is spot price so why pay extra b/c you have a sentimental attachment to it's national origin or a pretty picture? Personally, I don't want to see a picture of some dead overlord stamped into my investment. Soon Bidet will want his picture on our sovereigns and paper. :(
Congratulations on the RCM reaching out to you. Over the years I've managed to acquire 2-1oz. gold maples. They are very nice. Thank you for producing the sponsored video.
Gorgeous coins. Cheers!
The Canadian gold Maple is a good purchase. Lower premium and wide recognition. A must buy. I always try to avoid high premiums.
Good perspective coming from outside the States. Cheers!
Gotta love the RCM! Very underrated coins and bullion and their collector designs are stellar and even more underrated.
Yeah, they kill it on the Maples. I’ve never picked up the five nines stuff. Maybe I’m missing out.
Truly love the Royal Canadian Mint’s offerings ⭐️
They get it right for sure. Cheers!
I live on the US side of the Canadian border. I travel back and forth frequently. I love the Maple Leafs and the Britannias. Beautiful coins. Recognizable and salable here and afar.
Happy Friday! Congrats on the sponsorship, thanks for being upfront about it.
Thanks!
Really nice video, as usual with 2 is 1. I got a little chuckle at the end too, with the "take care eh?".
Nice review man👌 Thanks!
One of the top, if not the top, sovereign mints reached out to you...I'd call that validation that your thoughts and musings are on point. Congrats!!!
Thank you!
Wow the Canadian Mint reached out to you for review… that’s awesome man
😂😂
I like how the queens likeness ages through the years
Congrats on the promotion bro. The Royal Canadian Mint!! That's the shnizzle :)
Agreed - fun to get that call. Cheers!
Maples for fractional, Buffaloes for full ounces. The Chinese (and Asian countries in general) like Canada. I like the fact you omitted Libertad (high price), Panda (high price, odd sizes)
🤜🤛
The gold Maple became my favorite sovereign gold coin the moment I picked it up. Plus, it has a lower premium. I'll pick up Buffalos and AGEs when there are "deals," and they trade at a more reasonable premium.
Rcm really does know how to make amazing coins. Congratulations on the sponsorship
Agreed, and thanks!
Being in the US my preference is Maples, due to pricing, and AGE's. Those two are go-to's, always. I'm also a fan of quarter and half-ounce commemoratives (thinking confiscation there). That having been said, I have various others, Pandas, Swans, Krugs, etc., because I lucked into a price right at spot. I think Britannia's are probably the most appealing of all of them, just haven't lucked into one yet. American gold buffalos are flat-out ugly and, since they cost more, they're never on my shopping list.
what do you mean about the commemoratives and confiscation?
Great perspectives!
Great video, thanks!
Thanks!
Excellent content, thank you .
Thanks!
Great video. You make want to go out and buy a dozen. Particularly liked how you ended the video.
Gold is an easy subject. It’s mesmerizing stuff. Cheers!
The detail in the leaf sells it for me 👍🏼 best looking coin today
Buffalo ,Eagle ,double eagle ,maple leaf , top 4 from this corner , but all gold coins interest me .. Variety spice of life .... Just as long as I can accumulate it.
I love the maple leaf; it’s just so beautiful.
Great stuff
Present...I agree 100%.. I started out with AGE now I buy CML for all the reason you said..
🤜🤛
I just picked up my 30th gold coin, it happened to be a Gold Maple Leaf 👍🏼
Nice! The premiums have really come down on them lately.
Congratulations! Another top notch video. All my gold is buffaloes, eagles and pre 33. This year I was planning on either maples or philharmonics as those are my two favorite designs. After your presentation I think this is the year of the maple.
Thanks!
One advantage is that the Maple Leaf is not taxed in Canada. It is currency. Others are considered products and taxed.
Luckily for me I'm in NC US and we have no tax on bullion as well. I've bought a bit of rounds, coins, and bars, and so far RCM bullion has been the best quality no matter if its silver or gold.
@no_step_on_snek9796 I am in the Charlotte area and I agreed love no tax and RCM makes some of the best products hands down
Thank you for the video.
Thanks for watching!
I was very lucky to buy my first 1 ounce coin two weeks ago, and i got a 🍁. Spending 1950 euro on a gold coin was daunting but i definitely don't regret it, such a beautiful piece of art.
Nice!
Who wants 22 karat gold? Stop already. So we're down to 5. Add in security features and cost level and we're down to 2: Maples or Britannias. Then on looks, I would say the Maple noses out the win. Note the RCM also produces 5 9s. 🙂
They sure do. Five nines seems like they're showing off. 😄
@@2is1gold I also love the RCM collectibles - like their Peace super high relief Dollars - although they're way too pricey for simple stacking.
Congrats on landing that sponsorship! I'm especially happy that they picked you as opposed to the other flaming doom channels, that's saying something about the quality of your content! Keep at it!
Hey, thanks! Have a good weekend!
Just another great show
Thank you!
When i finally move to Gold, Gold Eagles and Maple Leafs and that is probably all besides couple of numismatic pieces i want for my collection.
0:00 IF I COULD ONLY HAVE "ONE" GOLD COIN I WOULD WANT THE: one tonne Australian Kangaroo
Ha! 💪
It was live at first sight for me with the Maples, long ago. They are beautiful. The Buffalos too! That pure 24k is so appealing!
Awesome about the RCM! That was a shot you didn't even take and you hit it... ayyy?
I’ve been practicing the shot all along! 😅
Thanks for the heads up on selling these coins..
Great video love the maples 🍁
🤜🤛
Yessir! Shout out from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦🥇
✊
Maples are great coins. Awesome content, thank you
🤜🤛
I’m thrilled! I live in Canada and these are the only ones I have!
Your home team does great work!
Damn...what a picture! 🪙 🖼️ Enjoy the cartwheel lighting on that Maple🍁. Talk about that Functional Art. Your Artistic videos along with your information have been Gold...Inspiring
Easy subject matter to make look nice!
My number 3 coin and the 2nd best looking in my opinion! Love them and stack them!
The radiance of the Maple Leaf just jumps off the coin. Dazzling. Particularly in sunlight,
Agreed. Cartwheel effect like no other. Cheers!
These are my favorite, and the only ones I buy, as they are less expensive than US Eagles, are PURE Gold, look very nice, are universally accepted and have GREAT security features....
🤜🤛
same
I really love the maple leafs. Both the gold and silver
🤜🤛
The 🍁 is my second favorite coin. The Buffalo for me it just has that old time good ol day feeling to it.
Excellent video and advice Sir.. I prefer pure .999 or .9999 like the Maples and Buffalos mainly because of the color and I work with several jewelers and they will only buy pure .999 gold coins and bars. With that said in my shop I sell more Eagles and Buffalo coins, bars are next then Maples Leafs and for the folks wanting the cheapest 1 oz gold "coin" for the money comes the Krugerrand. Life is good. God Bless
Cheers!
Ok love the video and I am a maple stacker. Knew most of the information but love seeing that the rcm is getting some love. Buffalo is my #2 coin but by far the best looking coin imho
🤜🤛
First few maples I got were secondary and scratched. I didn't like that so I ordered a new one from APMEX and it came with a deep singular scratch. I just don't have a good relationship with the maples apparently.
Got a deal a while back on a blister pack full of tiny little gold maples … Totally agree about the Canadian coins … Great mint …🌎🗿™️
I want an aquarium treasure chest full of the Maplegrams. I guess I need an aquarium too. 🐠
@@2is1gold … An aquarium full of tiny gold maples & brilliantly colored fish would be quite soothing & wonderful to gaze at …🌎🗿™️
The Canadian Mint is probably the best gold mint in the world. Maples are very easy to sell. Great coin! That was a great quote from Gretsky!!
maple leafs sell no problem up here in the pnw. great buy
🤜🤛
I like the hammer forged look of the buffalo. Maple leaves are fine too. I like a lot of nines.
Nines are good!
Awesome video. I'm from Canada.
🤜🤛
1 oz Gold Maple Leafs are hard to beat. They've got purity (9999), liquidity (internationally buyable and sellable), security features (potentially the best security features currently available), design (even though King Chuckles will be on commonwealth coins going forward) and decently priced premium over spot (unlike some coins whose mint puts in the bare minimum effort in on all these categories but demand high premium over spot 🙄).
I believe it. Even the silver maple leafs are much higher quality....I think I'm going to take your advice on monthly fractionals while continuing to build my silver stash when the deals are good. My 1st choice will be maples
I have a short stack of Silver Maples. The shine compared to ASEs is wild - they look like a different metal.
@@2is1gold Spot on. That's why I prefer them to rounds and especially ASE's. The premium on Maple Leafs is usually less than a dollar more than generic rounds and they seem to be much higher quality
I got excited about the Dragons and ordered a couple on Wednesday. Wish I woulda waited.... feeling like we'll be in the mid 19s next week.
Watch spot drop and the dragons get more expensive. With the lunars you have to buy em when they’re available. Nice pickup I grabbed some also
I love maple leafs, can't wait to get a 1oz coin but I'll stack 10ths. I noticed the Philharmonics are the thickest 1/10 I kinda figured maples would be thicker. Both are 24K but the maples have that deeper, honey toned gold.
One of my prized possession is the 1985 Maple.
great content! love the voice
Thanks!
I concur
Great vid!
The Royal Canadian Mint is amazing.
My favorite gold coin is the 1907 high relief Saint Gaudens double Eagle… that one seems like a cool coin to stack!
Cheers!
lining up to pick up my 1st G.Mpl, glad to hear they're so well thought of, A?
Ha, yes, they’re great. Cheers!
I like phillies on which they don't put an effigy of a foreign potentate on the back of the coin. Canada still feels like a small child looking affectionately to their mom, the UK. Austria is a grown-up in this case.
Maple gold and silver are my jam.
Maples are gorgeous
Agreed!
Brits are typically even less expensive and have at least as good security features.
way better security. its the best bullion coin imo
Everything in Canada is made with at least 1 drop of 100% pure Canadian Maple Syrup! I'm biased, but I love the Gold Maple!
Southeastern US. I have been stacking since the beginning of the century, and I have bought exclusively gold maples. My reason for choosing RCM was a weird idea that honestly wasn’t well-thought through, but once I made the choice I never changed and have not bought anything else (except a few British sovereigns as gifts for people). The reason was I somehow thought that the US government would keep a record of my eagles and buffalos, and that would make it easier for them to confiscate my gold if someday they decided to do that again! Yeah, I know that’s far fetched, but that’s what I thought at the time. I didn’t know about the 25 coin reporting thing at the time, and let’s just say I’m in deep enough that it could come up (but now that I know about it, it surely won’t!). Unlikely to stack anything else at this point.
If the coin is legal currency does it technically still belong to the country of origin? And does melting it down constitute the crime of defacement just as ripping up a bill is defacement?
I purchased a maple leaf yesterday, it as as well as the brittania, are my 24k go to coins.
Love a Maple Leaf, I have many ... well, had many before a similar boating accident : ) but in my book it is the BRITANNIA that is the most beautiful!
Boating accidents are the worst. 😭
I just struggle not buying American. I just need to get over that, I guess. So far, I own all buffalos (0ksy, one one Scottsdale but it’s still American). Perhaps I need to buy a maple today to make up for the Buffalo I bought last Sunday after the international market opened. lol.
Great channel. You’re one of the best out there. Thank you for being here for us.
Thank you!
Absolutely the ML is the most beautiful coin made
I agree. I need to get some.
I’m waiting (hoping?) for the spot price to drop before taking a Leaf out of your book. It’s stunning.
Today was a good start!
Awesome video.
Thoughts on owning the Canadian Royal mint 1oz gold bar (not coin) and if it would be easily sold globally? First gold bar I bought 1 month ago 🙋🏾♂️
If not I might return for the maple leaf. Plan to stack but what to make sure I’m stacking the right things lol
ahhhhh finally did the maple video. I know its sponsored, but do another one lol. If you remember me, I've been saying the four 9's maples are the way to go in all respects. Even the con isn't really a con if you visit multiple coin shops in one day. My only regret is that I didn't know about gold sooner. Got in at the 1600+ ranges 😭 ( Other wise I'd have a pirates treasure chest full by now 🤣🤣 )
I want a pirate chest of the stuff too 😄🏴☠️
2009 Double Eagle for the win. Got a route for the Home team, even though it has some cons against it diameter size and high premiums, but aesthetically, arguably the best looking coin of recent mintage.
Beautiful coin. Not cheap unfortunately.
I love the buffalo i think it looks cool i like buffalo's 🐃 and its 24kt.
My first and currently only 1oz coin is the 2023 maple. Was an easy choice for me as I love the design of the maple leaf, the 2023 one has the Elizabeth's dates queen, maples probably got the best security feature, it was the cheapest one,and it's of course also 24k and one of the most popular coins (which would help if id have to sell in a pinch).
🤜🤛
I love the Maple leaf and I stack silver Leafs. But as for gold, being a stacker with limited resources and since I live in Eastern Europe, I stick to Austrian Ducats, Austro-Hungarian florins and 20 golden Francs/Napoleon III. As for the best looking coin, I would actually go with Britannia, but that's just my personal aesthetic preference.
I'm from Europe and I go with Britannia Coins. They have low premium, high security and they look great in my opinion. But I have to admin, I love the design of the American buffalos. They have a raw and pure character for me. They are not as refined and modern looking as Britannia. I love that.
With silver coins is a bit different for me. Because they are cheaper, I try to get a high variety of different coins. Just to enjoy the different designs.
Rcm is very high quality stuff.
Gold Eagles is my #1, but I must say the gold maple leaf is a clean design with a smooth look that has an amazing glow to it.
I consider the Canadian Maple Leaf to be one of the very best gold coins as well. An important factor is certainly the cool iconic design and purity but also the security features. The security features of the current Britannias are superior to that of the Maple Leaf in my humble opinion but the design of of the Maple Leaf has always made it a top class coin even in the past. My first Maple Leafs were minted back in 1987. At that time only the Australian Nugget would be a match while the first issues of the Britannia only had 22k purity and weren't even a match for the Krugerrand, in my opinion.
Yeah, Mints are starting to catch on with the visual security features. Definitely a good thing. Cheers!
I have a Gold Maple leaf 2023, but what I don't like about them is their size compared to other 1 oz coins. Personally I like stacking the Britannia's more, I'd stack the buffalo's but the premium on them is to high where I'm from.
Funny, i recently watched a video of someone trying to sell gold u.s. coins in other countries and having some trouble. Good info👍
Yes, the other side of the world bars rule supreme.
Ive wanted a gold buffalo since 2006 and never achieved that gosl. Everytime I want to buy, the price jumps. Its almost hoprless. My second fav is the mapleleaf followed by the libertad, kugerand, and panda.
Cheers
While I do have gold eagles and Buffalo, gold maples are my priority to purchase..
Nice!
Gold or silver maples seem like they're always a good choice as long as the premium looks decent
My favorite gold bullion coin too. I did a video about this years ago. But, mine never caught the attention of the RCM.
You must not have gushed enough! 😄
Actually, don't watch the link I posted. lol It was bad. Lighting/audio and some of the presentation too. lol Some of my older videos suck. Heck , some of my newer ones too, just not as bad. You however, do a wonderful job
@@SalivateMetal ha! YT might have buried your link any way. Cheers, Sal!
@@2is1gold Then, that is a good thing. ahah
