| Reverse description | A richly detailed depiction of Queen Elizabeth II seated within the ornate Coronation State Coach (Accession Carriage), surrounded by elaborately engraved architectural and decorative elements evoking the grandeur of the 1952 coronation procession. The composition, engraved by Susan Taylor, fills the field with fine detail including spoked wheels, heraldic embellishments, and ceremonial figures. The legend 'CANADA DOLLAR' is inscribed in stylized lettering across the lower portion of the design. The overall effect is heightened by the deep relief proof striking and gold plating, giving the scene a luminous, commemorative quality. |
