| Obverse lettering | ELIZABETH II D·G·REGINA 2022 (Translation: Elizabeth II Queen by the grace of God) |
| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely engraved portrait of celebrated Canadian jazz pianist Oscar Peterson seated at a grand piano, his hands captured mid-performance in expressive motion. From his playing hands emerges a flowing musical staff bearing the two closing bars of his renowned composition Hymn to Freedom, rendered in elegant relief as a visual metaphor for his musical legacy. The composition is framed by the inscriptions CANADA and OSCAR PETERSON arcing along the periphery, with the denomination 20 DOLLARS completing the legend. The design conveys movement and artistic vitality through dynamic line work and carefully sculpted relief. |
