| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely engraved numismatic adaptation of the painting 'Nova Scotia Fishing Village' by Group of Seven artist Arthur Lismer, depicting a bustling maritime scene featuring wooden fishing vessels, wharves, and weathered waterfront buildings rendered in a bold, expressionistic style. The composition fills the central field with dynamic intersecting lines evoking the rigging and structures of a Nova Scotian fishing community. The denomination '20 DOLLARS' and country name 'CANADA' arc along the upper periphery, flanked by the date '2012', while the artist's name 'ARTHUR LISMER' curves along the lower border, all separated by raised dot devices. |
