| 背面描述 | The reverse commemorates the centenary of the first powered flight in Canada, depicting a young child running with arms outstretched while holding a toy biplane aloft. The shadow of the toy aircraft is cast dramatically beneath the figure in the lower field, evoking themes of imagination and aviation heritage. Selective 24-karat gold plating highlights the central design elements, creating a striking contrast against the mirror-polished sterling silver surfaces. The legend CANADA DOLLAR arcs along the upper periphery, with the dual dates 1909 2009 inscribed below, marking the one-hundred-year anniversary. The design was executed by engraver William Woodruff. |

Issued to mark the centenary of the first powered flight in Canada — J.A.D. McCurdy's Silver Dart on February 23, 1909, at Baddeck, Nova Scotia — this coin commemorates an event that made Canada the fourth country in the world to achieve controlled heavier-than-air flight. McCurdy was 21 years old. The flight covered roughly half a mile over the frozen surface of Baddeck Bay, observed by a crowd that included members of Alexander Graham Bell's Aerial Experiment Association, which had funded and designed the aircraft.
