Reverse description The reverse is engraved in a deep blue intaglio palette, dominated by a large central vignette of a rugged Canadian wilderness landscape with a rushing river in the foreground, coniferous trees lining the banks, and mountainous terrain in the distance. Bilingual denomination legends 'FIVE DOLLARS – 5 – CINQ DOLLARS' run along the top border, with 'BANK OF CANADA – BANQUE DU CANADA' across the lower border. The numeral '5' appears in each corner, and vertical 'FIVE DOLLARS' and 'CINQ DOLLARS' inscriptions flank the central vignette on the left and right margins respectively.
