| Reverse description | Right-facing bust of Laura Secord, the celebrated Canadian heroine of the War of 1812, rendered in relief against a field densely inscribed with repeated bilingual text reading 'The War of 1812 / La guerre de 1812' in varying sizes and orientations, creating a typographic background motif. The surname SECORD appears prominently in cursive script to the left of the portrait. A colored red maple leaf bearing the date '1812' in white is positioned in the lower left field, providing the coin's distinctive colorization element.
