| Aversbeschreibung | The upper portion of the field features the Montreal 1976 Olympic Games logo — the interlocked rings of the Olympic symbol — to the upper left, accompanied by a bilingual legend in three lines reading OLYMPIADE / XXI / OLYMPIAD to its right. Below and to the left appear the inscriptions MONTRÉAL and 1976. Occupying the lower two-thirds of the field is an abstract geometric design representing flowing water, rendered as a series of bold, sweeping curved lines suggestive of a whitewater canoeing or kayak slalom course, executed in a modernist graphic style. The denomination 10 DOLLARS appears in the lower exergue. |

One of 28 collector coins issued to finance the 1976 Montréal Games, this piece belongs to the second series of the Olympic program — a fundraising mechanism the Canadian government leaned on heavily after cost projections for the Games collapsed almost immediately following the 1970 bid. Montreal's Olympic debt was so severe it took the city until 2006 to pay off, thirty years after the closing ceremony.
The .450 fineness was a deliberate step down from the finer silver used in the program's earliest issues, reflecting both rising silver prices and the sheer volume of coins the mint needed to produce across the full run.
