Reverse description The reverse is engraved in a deep blue-green intaglio, centred on a detailed cartographic vignette of Canada with geographic features rendered in fine line work. Large numeral '5' counters appear at the left and right within elaborate guilloche surrounds, with additional small '5' numerals at the lower centre and corner ornaments. The composition is framed by an intricate borderwork of intertwined scrollwork and lathe-work patterns.
