| Reverse description | The reverse presents a dramatic, selectively coloured depiction of a Quetzalcoatlus — a giant pterosaur known colloquially as the 'Terror of the Sky' — rendered in warm amber and brown tones with wings fully extended in soaring flight. The prehistoric creature dominates the central field, its elongated crest and beak rendered with naturalistic detail, set against an engraved rocky mountainous landscape in the background. The country name CANADA and the date 2016 arc along the upper periphery in raised lettering, while the denomination 10 DOLLARS is inscribed in a curved legend along the lower portion of the field. |
