| Beschrijving voorzijde | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II after the portrait by Susanna Blunt, depicting the monarch in mature bust with necklace and earring, her hair styled in a bun. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper left rim and D·G·REGINA along the upper right rim, all rendered in upright Latin capitals. A beaded inner border frames the effigy, and the engraver's initials SB appear discreetly below the truncation of the bust. The portrait is rendered in high relief with fine detail in the hair and facial features, characteristic of Blunt's 2003 coinage portrait used on Canadian issues. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This piece belongs to the RCM's "Scenes of Canada" series, which drew on 19th-century genre paintings and engravings to source its designs — a deliberate curatorial choice that positioned the mint as a vehicle for visual history rather than straight commemoration. The source material for this particular subject comes from the long tradition of depicting Indigenous traders navigating the St. Lawrence, figures who were economically central to colonial Québec but rarely acknowledged in official iconography of the period.
The .9999 fine silver specification is characteristic of RCM collector issues from this era, a purity standard the mint aggressively marketed internationally after 2011.
