| Reverse description | The central field bears the date 1816 in large numerals, surmounted by a decorative starburst or sunburst ornament positioned above the date. A continuous circular legend surrounds the central motif, punctuated by a star separating the beginning and end of the inscription. The overall design is simple and text-focused, consistent with the utilitarian character of Canadian colonial emergency coinage. |
