1oz Palladium Maple Leaf Coins

Palladium is a soft, silvery-white platinum group metal. More precious than silver, whiter than platinum and rarer than gold. Like platinum, palladium plays an essential role in modern autocatalyst systems in today's automobiles.

Palladium bullion is the way to invest in small quantities of a very scarce metal. The metal has become well established in the bullion markets and is easily bought and sold within the precious metal markets.

Palladium Maple Leaf coins contain 1oz. of 99.95% pure palladium and are $50 legal tender coins in Canada. They were first introduced in early November 2005 and offer investors an alternative to 1oz. palladium bars (available through either Pamp Suisse or Credit Suisse) since their introduction into the precious metals market.
