| Obverse description | The obverse bears the third effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, modeled by Dora de Pédery-Hunt, depicted in right-facing profile wearing the elaborate Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara. The Queen's portrait is rendered with fine detail, including the pearl and diamond ornamentation of the crown and a subtle drape at the shoulder. The peripheral legend reads 'ELIZABETH II D·G·REGINA' arcing around the upper field, while the denomination '10 DOLLARS' is inscribed along the lower arc. The coin exhibits a proof-like mirrored field characteristic of reverse proof striking. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a centrally placed, finely detailed rendition of the Royal Crown, flanked by elaborate floral and cross-pattée ornaments in high relief, dominating the upper portion of the field. Below the crown appear two overlapping Canadian maple leaves rendered in high contrast against the mirror-polished field, evoking the iconic national symbol. The date '2022' is positioned to the right of the maple leaves, while the purity designation '9999' appears below them. The circumferential legend 'CANADA' arcs across the top, and the inscription 'FINE GOLD 1/4 OZ OR PUR' curves along the lower field, attesting to the coin's gold content and purity in both English and French. |
