| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II after the portrait by Arnold Machin, depicting the Queen wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara, drop earrings, and a pearl necklace. The legend ELIZABETH II curves along the upper left rim and D·G·REGINA along the upper right, all within a beaded border. Below the portrait, the commemorative dates 1952 and 2002 flank the field in two lines, marking the Golden Jubilee of her accession, with the privy mark P appearing at the base. The truncation of the bust is cleanly defined, and the overall style reflects the refined neo-classical portraiture characteristic of Machin's long-standing Canadian effigy. |
