| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed naturalistic composition designed by Sheldon Beveridge, depicting an adult peregrine falcon perched on a rocky ledge and leaning forward to feed two downy nestlings at its right. The birds are rendered with exceptional detail, showcasing the falcon's characteristic plumage, talons, and hooked beak, while the nestlings are depicted with open beaks awaiting food. Sparse arctic vegetation and stratified rock formations occupy the lower field, evoking the bird's natural nesting habitat. The legend CANADA arcs along the upper periphery, and the denomination 300 DOLLARS is inscribed along the lower border, with the engraver's initials DJH appearing in the lower left field. |
