Reverse description The reverse presents a bold, high-relief depiction of Britannia, shown as a helmeted allegorical female figure facing left in three-quarter view, wearing classical armour with a decorative breastplate and a flowing cape. She holds a trident at her left side, referencing the iconic vignette from Canada's 1923 25-cent shinplaster fractional currency note. The entire field is engraved with an intricate guilloche wave pattern replicating the security printing of the original banknote. The legend '300 DOLLARS · CANADA 2007' arcs along the upper periphery, with the engraver's initials 'RRC' visible in the lower left field. The design is a faithful numismatic tribute to the historical Canadian paper currency issued during the early twentieth century.
