I purchased this 2008 Maple Leaf the other day and found a slight blemish on the front (cheek) and what looks like some minor damage on back probably from the mint tube (above Canada). Am I being crazy or should I return it?

If it bothers YOU,do what makes you happy. Personally if its value is just for its PM content,no I would not send it back. Gold is gold ,unless of course its worth more then its weight.

as well. When I order silver bullion (can't afford the gold) coins I do not expect them to look like proofs and put up with bumps, bruises and milk spots. BUT if it really bothers you ask for an exchange.

Thanks, I guess I just needed some reassurance. I will be keeping it.

Yeah, unless You're buying graded bullion, I'd just keep it. It may be harder to sell on ebay, but if You sell Your gold to a bullion dealer just keep it. they don't care as long as it's real.

When you spend that much, most want a nice looking coin.

But as others have said, it is a bullion coin.

The decision is up to you, you should b e happy with it.


I do see a lot of gold maple leaf coins. Being .9999 fine,
these coins seem to get hits pretty easy.

To me, they are coins that should be in air-tites.

Thanks again for the replies.

You all make good points. To be honest, I'm a little embarrassed for even bringing the subject up. Silverwolf is right. I was totally over thinking it! I took a look at the coin today and I am totally fine with the condition. Plus I got a decent deal.
