Reverse description The reverse, designed by Inuit artist Germaine Arnaktauyok, depicts a stylized scene commemorating the creation of Nunavut Territory: a central Inuit figure rendered in the gold center holds a traditional qulliq (oil lamp), surrounded by symbolic imagery evoking Arctic heritage. Two additional figures rendered in silver flank the central composition in the outer ring, their forms rendered in a distinctive Inuit artistic style. The gold center and silver ring work together to differentiate the compositional elements, enhancing the artistic depth of the design. The legend 'NUNAVUT' and its Inuktitut syllabic equivalent 'ᓄᓇᕗᑦ' appear above 'CANADA 2 DOLLARS' along the lower arc of the field.
