| Aversbeschreibung | Central device depicts a stylised female shot put athlete in profile facing left, her flowing hair rendered in fine incised lines, shown in the act of release with a shot put visible to either side in a decorative geometric composition. A serrated or sawtooth-pattern band frames the athletic figure horizontally across the mid-field. The Montreal 1976 Olympic logo — comprising five interlocking rings surmounted by a stylised 'M' — appears in the upper left of the field. Bilingual legends in Latin script read OLYMPIADE XXI OLYMPIAD to the upper right, MONTRÉAL 1976 to the left, and the denomination 10 DOLLARS along the lower field. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
One of 28 silver — and in this case, copper — issues released by the Royal Canadian Mint to fund the 1976 Montréal Games, these Olympic coins were sold through a subscription program that raised hundreds of millions of dollars toward construction costs that ultimately ballooned to nearly $1.5 billion CAD, leaving Montréal taxpayers servicing the debt until 2006.
The copper composition is the anomaly worth noting. The overwhelming majority of the series was struck in sterling silver; the pure copper variants were a separate collector issue, not intended for circulation, produced in smaller numbers and frequently housed in the official series cases.
