| Reverse description | The reverse features a vivid full-colour depiction of a male Rose-breasted Grosbeak (Pheucticus ludovicianus) perched among the foliage of a maple branch, rendered with naturalistic precision. The bird is shown in its distinctive plumage: black head and wings contrasting with a brilliant crimson breast patch and white underparts, executed in applied colour over the milled coin surface. The maple leaves surrounding the subject are coloured in characteristic green tones, anchoring the composition within a Canadian natural setting. The legend 'CANADA' arcs along the upper border, while '25 CENTS 2012' is inscribed along the lower periphery, all within a raised rim. |
