| Reverse description | The reverse, designed by Canadian artist Lisa Thomson-Khan, presents a vivid colour-enhanced portrait of the prairie crocus (Pulsatilla ludoviciana), the official floral emblem of Manitoba, rendered in fine detail against a polished proof field. The bloom is depicted with characteristic violet petals and a golden-yellow centre, faithfully capturing the flower's natural appearance. The artist's initials LT appear discretely within the design, serving as the sole reverse inscription. |
