| Obverse description | The obverse features the fourth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Susanna Blunt, depicting a right-facing draped bust of the Queen wearing a diadem and pearl necklace. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper left field, while D·G·REGINA arcs along the upper right, both rendered in raised Latin lettering. The portrait is rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished proof field, surrounded by a beaded border. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a lone wolf standing in a snow-covered winter landscape, head raised in a howl, depicted in the centre-left of the field. Behind the wolf, a dramatic aurora borealis radiates across the upper portion of the design in sweeping coloured bands, rendered using selective colour printing in hues of green, pink, and violet against a frosted background. A treeline of conifers frames the lower horizon, evoking the Canadian wilderness. The legend CANADA 2014 arcs along the upper field, and the denomination 20 DOLLARS is inscribed along the lower field, all in raised Latin lettering. The design is enclosed within a beaded border. |
