| Reverse description | The selectively gold-plated reverse presents an expansive Arctic panorama combining two artistic traditions: Brent Townsend's iconic Canadian dollar circulation coin polar bear motif is integrated with an original composition by Inuvialuk artist Karis Gruben. The scene depicts a male polar bear standing on ice and gazing into the distance at centre, while a female polar bear crouches near the water's edge spotting a seal below the surface. Above, a dramatic sky rendered in gold plating features the sun flanked by sundogs, a characteristic Arctic atmospheric phenomenon. The legends CANADA, the date 2022, the denomination 2 DOLLARS, and the artists' initials BT and KG are distributed around the design. |
