| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in a monochrome blue, dominated by a large intaglio landscape vignette of a rushing river scene framed by dense coniferous forest and distant mountains under a clouded sky, evoking the Canadian wilderness. The denomination numerals '5' appear in each corner, with the bilingual legends 'FIVE DOLLARS' and 'CINQ DOLLARS' running along the top and 'BANK OF CANADA – BANQUE DU CANADA' along the bottom. The composition is framed by intricate guilloche border work along all four edges. |
