| Obverse description | The obverse features the fourth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Susanna Blunt, depicting a mature right-facing bust of the Queen with a delicate pearl necklace and no crown. The portrait is rendered in high relief with fine detail to the hair and facial features. The legend ELIZABETH II is inscribed along the left rim and D·G·REGINA along the right rim, both in raised Latin characters. A small Royal Canadian Mint logo appears at the base of the portrait in the lower field. The coin is surrounded by a uniform beaded border. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a bold right-facing bust of a woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus), originally engraved by Emanuel Hahn, with its distinctive broad, palmated antlers dominating the upper field. The denomination 25 CENTS is inscribed in two lines within the antlers at centre, while the country name CANADA arcs along the upper left rim and the date appears along the right rim. The design conveys naturalistic detail in the animal's fur, muzzle, and neck, set against a plain field. A beaded border frames the entire composition. |
