| Reverse description | The reverse features a vivid full-colour photographic rendering of Mount Rundle, located in Banff National Park, Alberta, enclosed within a bold hexagonal frame set against the coin's polished silver field. The composition captures the snow-capped peak rising dramatically above a tranquil foreground lake, whose still waters reflect the mountain and sky in near-perfect symmetry, evoking the celebrated landscape photography style that inspired the series. The artist's signature monogram appears within the lower right quadrant of the image. The legends 'CANADA' and '30 DOLLARS' are inscribed along the upper and right periphery respectively, with the date '2019' along the left and the aperture notation 'F/2.8' along the lower border, referencing the photographic origin of the design. |

| Additional information |
Mount Rundle, the asymmetrical peak that dominates the Banff skyline, was named for Robert Terrill Rundle, a Methodist missionary who traveled the Canadian Rockies in the 1840s — he never actually climbed it. The Royal Canadian Mint's ongoing fine silver landscape series has drawn consistent collector interest since the early 2010s, with mintages on individual issues typically capped low enough that secondary market premiums emerge quickly after sellout.
