| Reverse description | The reverse presents a vibrant colorized composition depicting float planes moored along the Mackenzie River, set beneath a sweeping aurora borealis rendered in vivid greens and purples across the night sky. The scene celebrates Canada's 150th anniversary of Confederation, evoking the nation's northern wilderness and aviation heritage. The landscape is depicted with fine engraved detail complemented by selective color printing applied to the polished surface. The legend CANADA arcs across the upper field, with the commemorative date range 1867 - 2017 prominently inscribed to mark the sesquicentennial. The overall composition balances naturalistic color imagery with traditional minting craftsmanship. |
