| 裏面の説明 | The denomination '20 CENTS' is inscribed in two lines at the centre of the field, with the date '1858' below, all enclosed within a wreath of maple leaves tied at the base with a ribbon bow. A St. Edward's Crown surmounts the wreath at the top of the design. The wreath branches extend symmetrically on both sides, with naturalistically rendered maple leaves characteristic of early Canadian coinage. The entire design is contained within a beaded border. |

Canada's 20-cent piece was a short-lived miscalculation. The denomination was chosen to align with the decimal dollar being introduced in the Province of Canada, but it created immediate confusion with the American quarter, close enough in size to circulate interchangeably yet worth five cents less. Merchants and the public rejected it almost immediately, and the denomination was abandoned after this single year of issue.
The entire mintage of 730,392 pieces was struck at the Royal Mint in London — Canadian branch mints did not yet exist. When the 25-cent piece replaced it in 1870, many 20-cent coins were redeemed and melted.
