| Reverse description | The reverse, designed by Canadian artist Lisa Thomson-Khan, features a vibrant colour portrait of the Pacific dogwood (Cornus nuttallii), the official floral emblem of British Columbia. The bloom is depicted in full detail with white petals and a central cluster of small flowers, rendered using selective colour application against the polished silver field. The floral motif is framed by a stylized decorative floral border that echoes the natural theme of the design. The artist's initials LT appear discreetly within the design as the only reverse lettering. |
