Because there is no hardening alloy, the Maple is softer than a Krugerrand or Gold Eagle and shows handling marks far more easily, which is why they are usually kept in their original tubes or sleeves. The gold content is identical to a 22 karat one-ounce coin, so condition aside, melt value is the same.
Its melt value is about $4,377.10, based on 0.9999 troy ounces (31.100 g) of pure gold at a spot price of $4,377.60 per troy ounce. That is the metal content only — the coin may be worth considerably more to a collector.
The coin weighs 31.103 g in total and is 99.99% fine (.9999), so it contains 31.100 g of pure gold — 0.9999 troy ounces.
Not exactly. Melt value is the raw metal content at spot. Scrap buyers and refiners typically pay 80–95% of melt to cover refining and margin, while recognised bullion coins and collectable dates usually sell for more than melt, not less. Melt is best treated as the floor under a coin’s price.
