| Obverse description | The central field features an abstract stylized representation of undulating water lanes rendered as interlacing wave-form lines, evoking the sport of swimming. In the upper portion of the field, the Montreal 1976 Olympic logo — comprising five interlocked rings surmounted by the stylized letter 'M' — appears at upper left, accompanied by the bilingual legend 'Olympiade XXI Olympiad' to its right. The host city and year 'Montréal 1976' are inscribed to the lower left. The denomination '10 Dollars' is incused along the lower rim. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is entirely plain and unadorned, presenting a smooth, unfinished field devoid of any design, legend, or inscription. This blank surface is consistent with the coin's status as a pattern or trial piece struck on a bonded double planchet, where only one face received the die impression. |
