| Obverse description | Right-facing diademed effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, rendered in high relief against a deeply mirrored proof field. The Queen wears a tiara and a draped neckline, with her hair styled in an upswept coiffure. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the left rim, while CANADA 1986 appears along the right rim. A small maple leaf device is centered at the base of the design, separating the two inscriptions. The portrait is based on the Arnold Machin effigy as adapted for Canadian coinage. |
