| Reverse description | The reverse displays a dynamic holographic composition celebrating the 2015 Toronto Pan American Games, depicting two athletes in silhouette: a gymnast performing on parallel bars in the foreground and a wheelchair basketball player in the act of shooting in the background. Radiating lines emanate from behind the figures, conveying motion and energy, while stylized maple leaves and flowing ribbon elements frame the scene. The legends 'CANADA' and '20 DOLLARS' appear along the left and lower portions of the design, with 'TORONTO 2015' inscribed along the upper right. The engraver's initials 'TB' appear in the lower central field. |

| Additional information |
The "In the Spirit of Sports" series was part of a broader RCM push in the mid-2010s to pair fine silver with colorized or themed imagery targeting collector demographics beyond traditional numismatists. These issues were produced in strictly limited mintages and sold directly through the Mint rather than entering circulation — a distribution model the RCM had refined through the 2000s into a reliable revenue stream independent of seigniorage.
