| Reverse description | The reverse, designed by Christie Paquet, features a whimsical depiction of the Tooth Fairy in flight, shown as a small winged figure with large butterfly-like wings, dressed in a flowing gown and holding a magic wand with radiating sparkles. The fairy is portrayed in a dynamic, cartoonish style in low relief at the center of a recessed circular field. The denomination 25 cents arcs across the upper portion of the coin in a stylized script, while the date 2012 and the country name CANADA curve along the lower periphery in capital letters. A beaded border frames the entire design. |
