| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II at approximately 77 years of age, portrayed bare-headed and wearing a necklace and earrings, after a portrait by Susanna Blunt. The legend ELIZABETH II flanks the upper field, with the denomination 10 DOLLARS and date 2020 inscribed along the lower periphery. The portrait is rendered in fine relief against a plain field, consistent with the standard fourth effigy used on Canadian coinage of this period. |
