| Reverse description | Three figures in Arctic exploration dress are depicted beside a loaded dogsled, with the dog team positioned in the foreground as if awaiting the command to set out across the tundra. A stylized compass arc fills the upper background, merging with the suggestion of a vast Arctic horizon and sky. The design commemorates the Canadian Arctic Expedition of 1913. The reverse legend encircling the design reads 'CANADA 25 CENTS ARCTIC EXPEDITION 1913-2013 EXPEDITION DANS L'ARCTIQUE', with 'BR' appearing as part of the inscription. Two distinct varieties exist: Type 1 features frosted explorer figures, and Type 2 features a frosted compass arc. |
