Canadian Gold Cougar
The Royal Canadian Mint (RCM) introduced the world to the first 99.99% pure gold coin with its now iconic Maple Leaf. It has now outdone itself with its new Wildlife Series — the world’s only “five 9s” pure gold coins ever produced by a national mint. The “Cougar” is the second of three coins in the Wildlife Series and is being produced in 2015 only. That’s right, the Cougar contains 99.999% pure gold and is only available until the end of 2015, when production ends!
Another major advantage of the gold Cougar is that, unlike more common 1-ounce gold bullion coins produced by national mints, the Cougar comes individually sealed in a hard plastic case with an assay certificate guaranteeing its purity. In addition to this, it carries the state-of-the-art, laser-engraved mint mark from the RCM for added security.
