| Reverse description | A finely detailed peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus) is depicted perched in a three-quarter frontal view upon a naturalistic bare branch, its talons firmly gripping the wood and foliate sprigs extending to the left. The bird's feathered plumage is rendered with exceptional sculptural precision, capturing the compact, powerful form characteristic of the species. The engraver's initials DJH appear to the right of the central motif in the field. The legend CANADA arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 150 DOLLARS is inscribed along the lower border. |
