| Obverse description | The obverse bears the mature, right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II as designed by Susanna Blunt, whose initials 'SB' appear at the truncation of the bust. The Queen is depicted with her characteristic coiffed hair, drop earring, and pearl necklace, rendered in fine relief against a mirror-polished field. The peripheral legend reads 'ELIZABETH II' to the left and 'CANADA 2021' across the top, with 'D•G•REGINA' to the right. The denomination '200 DOLLARS' is inscribed along the lower rim, completing the circular legend. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a richly colored composition in the Northwest Coast Indigenous art tradition, divided into four quadrants by a circular medallion format, each quadrant rendered in a distinct background color — blue, gold, green-grey, and deep red — and filled with interlocking stylized animal figures executed in the formline design vocabulary. At the center of the composition sits a prominent circular sun or spirit face motif with bold features, surrounded by flowing formline elements. A border of alternating triangular points in green and grey encircles the entire design, evoking a traditional Indigenous decorative frame. The artist's initials 'RH' are incised within the field. The overall effect is a mandala-like fusion of Indigenous iconography and contemporary applied color technique. |
