| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing a diamond diadem and pearl drop earrings, after the portrait by Dora de Pédery-Hunt. The denomination '10 CENTS' appears to the left of the effigy, and the date '2001' to the lower right. The legend 'CANADA' arcs above and 'ELIZABETH II' curves along the lower rim, all rendered in a clean, modern engraving style consistent with the proof finish. |

| Reverse description | Three overlapping stylized busts in profile, representing volunteers of varying ages, rendered in a bold graphic relief against a polished field. A flowing ribbon bearing the bilingual legend curves across the lower portion of the design, transitioning into an abstract flourish suggestive of communal energy and service. The composition is dynamic and contemporary, evoking unity and civic participation in commemoration of the United Nations International Year of Volunteers. |
