Reverse description The reverse depicts a polar bear walking to the left across an icy Arctic landscape, rendered in finely detailed relief, with scattered ice floes and rocky terrain in the foreground. In the background, jagged icebergs rise against a dramatic sky filled with stylized streaks representing the aurora borealis. The legend CANADA DOLLAR arcs along the upper border, interrupted at the apex by a small maple leaf device. The date 1980 appears in the lower exergue. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded inner border, evoking the grandeur and remoteness of Canada's Arctic territories.
