Obverse lettering ELIZABETH II D·G·REGINA
(Translation: Elizabeth II Queen by the grace of God)
Reverse description The reverse features the iconic Voyageur design, depicting two figures — a fur trader and a Native Canadian — paddling a heavily laden birchbark canoe across open water, with a loon perched on a rocky outcropping rising from the centre of the composition amid pine trees. The scene is rendered in fine detail with horizontal water lines in the field suggesting the river surface. The legend CANADA arcs along the upper periphery, while DOLLAR is inscribed along the lower periphery, with the date 1972 appearing in the exergue area between the two. The design was executed by T. Smith and reflects the classic Canadian wilderness aesthetic established for the silver dollar series.
