Obverse description 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.
