| Reverse description | The reverse depicts explorer Henry Kelsey standing at centre, dressed in period frontier attire and wearing snowshoes, gesturing outward as he surveys the landscape alongside two Indigenous companions. A third Indigenous figure crouches in the foreground, while a fourth is seated to the right; a herd of bison occupies the left middle ground, evoking the Canadian prairies that Kelsey traversed circa 1690. The engraver's initials appear in the lower right field. The legend CANADA DOLLAR arcs along the upper periphery, with the commemorative dates 1690 and 1990 flanking the name KELSEY in the lower exergue. |
