| Obverse description | The obverse bears the fourth-generation effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by engraver Susan Taylor, depicting the Queen at approximately 77 years of age in right-facing profile, bareheaded, and adorned with a necklace and earrings. The legend ELIZABETH II D.G. REGINA encircles the upper portion of the field, while the denomination 3 DOLLARS appears below the effigy. The portrait is rendered in a refined, naturalistic style characteristic of Taylor's work for the Royal Canadian Mint. |

| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a vibrant, coloured scene representing the element of water, featuring a fast-flowing river teeming with leaping salmon rendered in polychrome enamel. Green maple leaves are visible in the foreground and surrounding environment, evoking the Canadian wilderness. The bilingual inscription WATER EAU appears prominently within the design, accompanied by the country name CANADA and the year of issue 2019 to the left. The composition is framed by the square format of the flan, with the naturalistic colour treatment contrasting against the polished silver field. |
