| Obverse description | The obverse features the fourth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt, depicting the sovereign in right-facing profile with a tiara and simple neckline, in a restrained and dignified style. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 2 DOLLARS and the date 2005 appear along the lower portion of the field. The portrait is set against a deeply mirrored proof field, characteristic of the Royal Canadian Mint's premium collector coinage. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed, forward-facing portrait of a Canadian lynx (Lynx canadensis), its distinctive tufted ears and broad facial ruff rendered with naturalistic precision against a highly polished mirror field. The word CANADA arcs prominently along the upper periphery, while the purity mark 9999 appears to the right of the animal's head. Along the lower margin, the inscription FINE SILVER 1/10 OZ ARGENT PUR confirms the coin's silver content and weight in both English and French, consistent with Canada's official bilingual coinage tradition. |
