| Obverse description | Effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, rendered as a bare-headed portrait depicting the Queen at approximately 77 years of age, wearing a necklace and drop earrings. The legend ELIZABETH II D•G•REGINA arcs along the upper periphery in Latin script. The portrait reflects Dora de Pédery-Hunt's mature effigy style as adapted for Canadian coinage of this period. |
