| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the George IV State Diadem and a pearl necklace, as modelled by Dora de Pédery-Hunt for the third definitive Canadian portrait. The truncation of the bust is clearly defined, and the Queen's hair is styled in soft waves beneath the ornate crown. The encircling legend reads ELIZABETH II to the left and D·G·REGINA to the right, separated by the portrait. A fine dentilated border frames the entire obverse field. |
