| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a bold, dynamic depiction of the Bluenose, the celebrated Nova Scotian fishing and racing schooner, shown under full sail and heeling slightly as it cuts through the water. Emanuel Hahn's design captures the vessel in fine detail, with rigging, sails, and hull clearly rendered. The inscription CANADA arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 10 CENTS appears along the lower periphery. The date 1968 is positioned to the left of the ship, and the mint mark H, denoting the Ottawa Mint's distinctive V-reeded production, appears to the right. The overall composition conveys motion and national pride. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Canada's dime underwent a quiet but significant transition in 1968: the Royal Canadian Mint abandoned the longstanding silver composition under pressure from rising silver prices and the mass hoarding that followed the U.S. Coinage Act of 1965. The nickel issues that year were struck at both Ottawa and Philadelphia — the latter engagement marking one of the few times a foreign mint produced circulating Canadian coinage. Ottawa-struck pieces are distinguished by a sharper, more consistent strike quality than their Philadelphia counterparts.
