| Reverse description | The classic Canadian Voyageur design by Emanuel Otto Hahn, depicting a French-Canadian voyageur and a First Nations companion paddling a birch-bark canoe to the right across open water. The voyageur is seated at the stern and the Indigenous paddler at the bow; bundles of goods are stowed in the canoe, one bearing the initials 'HB' for the Hudson's Bay Company. A common loon flies above the water in the upper field, with the sun setting in the background suggested by horizontal lines. The legend CANADA arcs above, the denomination DOLLAR arcs below, and the date appears between the paddlers within the field; several die varieties are distinguished by the number of water lines visible beneath the canoe. |
