| Reverse description | The reverse design by Stan Witten commemorates the centennial of the Royal Canadian Navy, featuring a Halifax-class frigate sailing at sea beneath a large anchor in the upper field. Flanking the anchor are two figures: a uniformed naval serviceman from 1910 on the left and a modern-day female naval officer on the right, symbolizing the evolution of the service over a century. The inscriptions are distributed across the field and periphery, incorporating both English and French language elements to reflect Canada's bilingual heritage. |
