| Reverse description | The reverse, designed by Ago Aarand, depicts a finely detailed bouquet of the four heraldic flowers from Canada's Coat of Arms: an English rose (upper left), a Scottish thistle (right), a shamrock representing Ireland (lower left), and a French lily (upper right), rendered in high relief against a polished field. The composition is naturalistic and elegant, with carefully engraved leaf and stem details that emphasize the botanical character of each bloom. A small engraver's initial mark appears at the lower centre of the design. The uncluttered field surrounding the floral group enhances the proof quality of the strike. No legends appear on the reverse, allowing the artistry of the floral motif to dominate. |
