What do we pay for a Platinum Maple Leaf?
Based on the platinum rate of this moment, €46.20 per gram of fine material. As of:
| Variant | Fine platinum | Total weight | We pay |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 oz | 31.104 g | — | €1,436.91 |
| 1/10 oz | 3.11 g | — | €143.69 |
This price applies regardless of the year and the mint. With a rare year or exceptional condition the collector’s value can be higher than the material value – then we say so, even if that means you are better off not selling us the coin.
How we arrive at this amount
A coin is precious metal in a recognisable shape. What it fetches therefore depends almost entirely on the fine weight: the weight of pure platinum it contains.
This coin is 999.5‰ pure, so the fine weight and the total weight are almost the same.
Not sure whether your coin is genuine? We check weight, diameter, thickness and – if in doubt – the density with X-ray analysis. Non-destructive: your coin stays intact.

Questions about selling Platinum Maple Leaf
Is this the same coin as the gold Maple Leaf?
The design is the same maple leaf, but the metal is different and so is the market. A platinum Maple Leaf follows the platinum rate rather than the gold rate, and at 999.5 fine it is very slightly less pure than the 999.9 gold version.
Which sizes does XGOUD buy?
We buy the one ounce and the tenth ounce in platinum. Each has its own fine weight and therefore its own purchase price, shown as a separate line in the table on this page against the platinum rate of that moment.
Are platinum Maple Leafs rare?
Mintages are far lower than for the gold version, because Canada struck platinum only in certain years and demand was modest. Some years are genuinely scarce, so we check the date and assess whether the collector’s value exceeds the metal value.
Why do you look at platinum coins more carefully?
Because platinum is rarer than gold and less familiar at the counter, so a careful check is worth the minutes it takes. We measure weight, diameter and thickness and establish the fineness by X-ray, all of it non-destructive and while you watch.
