| Obverse description | The obverse features the mature effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, modelled by Susanna Blunt, with the Queen depicted wearing a pearl necklace and earrings with her characteristic coiffed hairstyle. The portrait is rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper left periphery, while D·G·REGINA continues along the upper right, both inscriptions in raised Latin characters. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a bold compositional design juxtaposing two iconic Canadian symbols: a large maple leaf occupying the central field, rendered with selective gold plating that highlights its deeply veined surface, and a beaver shown in profile at centre, depicted in finely engraved unplated silver relief overlapping the leaf. The design is bisected vertically, contrasting the polished engraved beaver against the gold-plated maple leaf background, with the designer's initials PL visible in the lower left field. The legend CANADA arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 25 DOLLARS and date 2017 are inscribed along the lower periphery. |
