| Reverse description | A finely detailed, high-relief bust portrait of a Canadian wolf facing right dominates the field, rendered with exceptional naturalistic precision; individual guard hairs and the thick underfur of the ruff are meticulously engraved, conveying both power and wildness. The wolf's slightly open jaw reveals the teeth, and the eye is rendered with keen intensity. The legend CANADA arcs along the upper rim, flanked by the date 2016 at the right. Along the lower arc, the bilingual purity and weight inscription reads 9999 FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR 9999, with the privy mark PL appearing in the lower central field below the wolf's chin. |
