| Reverse description | The reverse presents a bust of the French explorer Jacques Cartier in Renaissance-era attire, shown in three-quarter profile facing left, with a ruffled collar and period costume rendered in fine detail. He holds a terrestrial globe in both hands, referencing his voyages of discovery. Behind the effigy, a stylized compass rose with geometric segmented panels occupies the field, evoking navigation and exploration. The curved legend 'GRANDS EXPLORATEURS' appears along the upper border, with the signature 'Jacques Cartier' rendered in script to the left of the bust. The word 'CANADA' is inscribed in the lower field, and the date '2011' appears at the bottom, with a small Monnaie de Paris mintmark visible at the right. |
