The obverse on the coin features a modern portrait of Queen Eizabeth II by Susanna Blunt, with the words ‘ELIZABETH II’ encircling the portrait above, and the coin’s legal tender face value ‘5 Dollars’ and year of manufacture in an arc below. The coin’s reverse features an iconic high relief representation of Canada’s national emblem, the Maple Leaf, with the silver purity 9999, and weight “FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR” displayed in an arc below.
