The 1/2 oz Canadian Platinum Maple Leaf War of 1812 coin was issued starting in 2012 to mark the bicentennial of a war that shaped Canada’s identity. Unlike the standard Platinum Maple Leaf series (1988-2002, resumed 2009), this release swaps the traditional maple leaf reverse for a design symbolizing the conflict’s key players—British Canada, the United States, and their shared history. With a limited production run ending around 2017, this coin combines the Maple Leaf’s .9995 purity with a unique historical narrative, making it a standout in platinum bullion.
Condition: Delivered in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, this coin shines with full luster and crisp details, from the maple-emblazoned shield to the queen’s portrait. Each piece is housed in a protective sleeve to maintain its pristine state, though minor minting marks may be present.
