Reverse description The reverse presents a dynamic Second World War scene commemorating the Battle of the Scheldt of 1944, engraved by Matt Murray. At centre, a helmeted Canadian infantryman in full combat kit advances in three-quarter view, brandishing a Bren light machine gun. In the left background, a military armoured vehicle advances through a smoke-filled landscape, while to the right a Dutch windmill and a warship's superstructure evoke the Dutch Scheldt estuary theatre. The bilingual arc legend THE BATTLE OF THE SCHELDT and LA BATAILLE DE L'ESCAUT flanks a maple leaf device at the top, with the commemorative dates 1944 and 2019 and the inscription CANADA along the lower arc; the engraver's initials MM appear in the lower left field.
