Vienna vs. Canadian Maple

[bullion]

What is the difference between Vienna Gold coins and Canadian Maple.
Why Vienna is $17 cheaper than Maple each being 99.99% pure, 1Oz.

Could someone please shed some light.

-TIA

I am with you in it makes little sense due to the fact the
Gold Vienna Philharmonics are fewer in production thus I would think collectors would pay premium for them due to less being made.

I have tossed your Q: around in my mind for a few days.
Here is what I have come up with.

They both are legal tender in there own nations.

Austria is small nation, far away & remote(harder to exchange),
thus they most likely fetch a premium in nations adjacent to Austria & I would think europe in general.

whereas

Canada is much more accessible & close to Americas investors & is closely tied to Australia & Great Britton and thus EASIER TO EXCHANGE FOR CASH.


Keep in mind I know very little about Gold coins,
so if any one else wants to correct me please do.

Peace and Aloha
