| Obverse description | The obverse features the mature effigy of Queen Elizabeth II in right-facing profile, as sculpted by Susan Taylor, wearing a pearl necklace and earring with her hair elegantly pinned up. The portrait is rendered in high relief against a deeply mirrored proof field, characteristic of the Royal Canadian Mint's five-nines gold issues. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs across the upper field, while the denomination 5 DOLLARS and the date 2012 are inscribed along the lower periphery. The engraver's initials ST appear subtly below the Queen's truncation. The coin exhibits a pronounced multi-sided rim consistent with its dodecagonal-edged flan, lending a distinctive geometric frame to the composition. |
