| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II as portrayed at age 77, after the portrait by Susanna Blunt. The queen is depicted bare-headed, wearing a necklace and drop earrings. The legend ELIZABETH II D•G•REGINA arcs along the upper periphery, identifying the sovereign by name and title. The field is plain, and the portrait is rendered in a refined, contemporary style characteristic of Royal Canadian Mint commemorative issues. |

| Reverse description | The reverse depicts the Norse god Odin astride Sleipnir, his legendary eight-legged horse, rendered in a richly detailed illustrative style. Huginn ('Thought'), one of Odin's two raven informants, is perched upon his shoulder, while Muninn ('Memory') flies at his side; his wolf companions Geri and Freki accompany him below. Selective gold plating accentuates Odin's helmet, arm guard, and his infallible spear Gungnir, as well as two decorative emblems, creating a striking two-tone contrast against the frosted proof silver field. The legend 2019 CANADA 20 DOLLARS is inscribed along the lower periphery. |
