The bust is uncrowned and shows the Queen adorned with a necklace and drop earrings. The legend ELIZABETH II D·G·REGINA arcs along the upper periphery of the field. The portrait is rendered in fine relief against a polished field, consistent with the Proof-finish standard of the series. |

| Additional information |
The Royal Canadian Mint's 2014 bullion and collector programs leaned heavily into niobium and selective plating technology during this period, but this issue belongs to a broader push to capture northern wilderness subjects for the high-premium collector market. Mintage was tightly controlled, as with most RCM fine silver pieces of this era, keeping secondary market premiums firm even years after release.
