Reverse description A dynamic aerially-viewed depiction of a two-man bobsled in full competitive descent occupies the central field, the sled decorated with a prominent Canadian maple leaf emblem on its cowling and motion lines radiating from the runners to convey speed. In the upper left of the field, the legend CALGARY / 1988 is inscribed alongside the official Olympic rings symbol and a stylized snowflake emblem of the XV Winter Olympic Games. The denomination 20 DOLLARS appears in the lower exergue, and the designer's initials JM are discreetly placed to the right of the sled. The deeply mirrored proof field enhances the frosted relief of the bobsled composition, reflecting the coin's commemorative Olympic theme.
