| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a richly coloured pysanka (Ukrainian Easter egg) design filling the entire oval field of the coin. The composition is symmetrically arranged and features traditional folk-art motifs including stylized sunflowers, floral sprays, scrolling tendrils, and small daisy-like blossoms rendered in purple, green, yellow, blue, and black against a white ground. The lower register is dominated by bold chevron bands filled with interlocking diamond lattice patterns in purple, black, and white. The legend CANADA • 2026 is inscribed in the lower exergual area in silver relief. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The pysanka — a Ukrainian Easter egg decorated through a wax-resist dyeing process — carries particular weight in Canada given the country's Ukrainian diaspora, the largest outside Ukraine and Russia itself, concentrated heavily in Alberta, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan following late 19th-century settlement waves. The Royal Canadian Mint has issued pysanka-themed coins periodically since at least the 2010s, often employing selective colour application or niello-style enameling to replicate the geometric precision of the tradition.
The .9999 fineness is consistent with the Mint's premium bullion and collector silver program, which shifted to four-nines purity as a deliberate market differentiator from standard .999 issues.
