| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, depicted at approximately 77 years of age, bare-headed and uncrowned, wearing a necklace and drop earrings. The portrait, executed in high relief, is rendered in a naturalistic style characteristic of the Susanna Blunt series. The legend arcs around the upper periphery, with the monarch's name and royal title inscribed in Latin. The initials of the engraver appear near the truncation. |

| Reverse description | A dynamic scene depicting a dog sled team in full stride across a frozen, windswept lake, rendered in high sculptural relief against a mirror-polished field. Four huskies in harness are shown in vigorous motion, moving from left to right, with a musher visible on the sled in the left background. A treeline and a small dwelling are depicted along the horizon to the right, evoking the Canadian Arctic wilderness. The denomination 250 DOLLARS arcs along the lower periphery, while CANADA and the date 2006 are inscribed across the upper field. The engraver's initials AN appear in the lower right of the central design. |
