| Aversbeschreibung | Right-facing laureate bust of Queen Elizabeth II, the first effigy used on Canadian coinage, after the portrait modelled by Mary Gillick. The Queen is depicted bare-shouldered with a sprig of laurel in her hair, her tresses arranged in an elegant chignon. A fine beaded border encircles the coin, with the circumferential legend reading ELIZABETH II DEI GRATIA REGINA, separated by raised dots, arcing from lower left to lower right around the field. |

The steel five-cent piece returned briefly in 1953–54 as a cost-control measure, echoing wartime production logic from a decade earlier. Canada had already experimented extensively with steel coinage during World War II, and the metallurgical infrastructure remained available. The chromium plating was meant to resist corrosion, though in practice these coins tend to develop rust at any breach in the plating — a chronic complaint with the wartime issues as well.
The 1953 date also marks the transition to Mary Gillick's first portrait of Elizabeth II, which arrived with a known striking problem: the relief was too high for clean production, and the obverse lettering frequently came up weak on early dies before adjustments were made mid-year.
