| Reverse description | Printed entirely in blue, the reverse presents a symmetrical allegorical composition with two large Roman numeral X cartouches at left and right. Two standing classical figures flank a central oval vignette bearing the Canadian Bank of Commerce coat of arms with a sailing ship, encircled by the bank's full title and founding date; a Union Jack device surmounts the central medallion. Agricultural and maritime emblems—including a globe, sheaves of wheat, and a cornucopia—are arranged in the lower corners, with fine guilloche borders framing the entire composition. |
