| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse, engraved by Pierre Leduc, presents a naturalistic underwater scene featuring a large adult female orca (Orcinus orca) in dynamic profile swimming toward the left, accompanied by a smaller calf swimming in parallel beneath her. The distinctive black-and-white patterning of both animals is rendered in finely detailed relief, with a stylized ocean surface visible in the upper background and rocky seabed flora depicted in the lower field. The date 2013 appears to the right within the central design, flanked by the engraver's initials PL at lower left, while the legend CANADA arcs across the upper border and 25 DOLLARS is inscribed along the lower border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Part of the RCM's ongoing hologram series, this issue uses a light-diffracting surface treatment applied directly to the field — a technique the mint refined through the early 2000s and which required retooling standard coining presses to control striking pressure precisely enough to preserve the foil layer. The orca subject tied to Canadian Pacific coastal identity, but the real story here is technical: achieving a .9999 fine silver surface stable enough to hold holographic registration without ghosting or delamination took the RCM several production cycles to master across the series.
