Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse presents a bold left-facing bust of Samuel de Champlain wearing a broad-brimmed hat and period attire, occupying the left foreground in high relief. Behind him, a detailed panoramic view of early Québec City is rendered along the right portion of the field, depicting the fortified settlement on the clifftop with sailing ships in the waters below, one bearing a fleur-de-lis pennant. The legend CANADA DOLLAR arcs along the upper rim, flanked by a stylised fleur-de-lis ornament. The commemorative dual dates 1608·2008 appear in the lower field in script lettering, marking the 400th anniversary of the founding of Québec. A beaded border frames the entire composition.

Aanvullende informatie

Québec City's 1608 founding by Samuel de Champlain made it one of the oldest continuously inhabited European settlements in North America, and the 400th anniversary drew significant federal investment — the commemorative program ran alongside a year-long celebration that included a controversial visit by French President Nicolas Sarkozy and persistent debate over whether the event was a Canadian or Québécois occasion. The Royal Canadian Mint issued this dollar in multiple finish variants, accounting for the four distinct catalog references under a single design.
