| Obverse description | The obverse bears the fourth effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by engraver Susan Taylor, depicting the Queen in right-facing portrait at approximately 77 years of age, bareheaded, and adorned with a necklace and earrings. The legend ELIZABETH II D•G•REGINA arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 10 DOLLARS appears in the lower field. The portrait is rendered in fine relief against a smooth field, consistent with the Royal Canadian Mint's modern commemorative coinage standard. |
