So I just got a notification from the Mint and my rep that there is a new release available. Too early to be August so I am thinking late July... Apologies if this is old news... I have been a bit preoccupied of late.

Headline was Affordable Gold Coin - National Pride... Imagine my disappointment with Yet Another Maple Leaf (YAML)

This one is 1/20th oz 99.99% but it has 3 leaves representing the three oceans that border Canada... Symbolism aside, it is just another maple leaf.

FV - $10, Cost $279.95. I can buy bullion 1/10 oz at $265 so an over 100% markup for a reverse proof finish. at 14mm it is smaller than a dime so affordable must mean the size of hole in your wallet is smaller than most gold... then again, the coin is smaller than most gold.

For Reference... this appears to be the same size as the Gold Louis series released 2006-2009. All of which you can purchase today for bullion value.

I have said before that the RCM is capable of some outstanding design work; unfortunately this is not an example, it is just a retread.

I've never been tempted by the Mint's small fractional gold - with this release, my streak continues!

Must not be an important release, as I got no advance notice. Will probably see it next week as part of August release.

Is this coin not the 1/20 oz. Pure Gold Coin - Everlasting Maple Leaf, from the June release?

applesauced, I think you are correct. Looking back I see it was in the June mailout (2022 Number 6) and I see an email from my rep on June 2 with this coin in it.

Apologies... I did note that this may be old news... that said, it can't be selling or the rep/email reminder would not have been sent.

I was just disappointed... again that the RCM chose to issue YAML
