| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse features the fourth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Dora de Pédery-Hunt, depicted in right-facing profile wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara and a pearl necklace. The legend CANADA arcs across the upper field, while the denomination 50 CENTS appears in large numerals to the left of the Queen's portrait. The inscription ELIZABETH II curves along the lower rim. The portrait is rendered in high relief with fine cameo contrast typical of proof coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued as part of the Royal Canadian Mint's festival coin series, this piece commemorates the Great Northern Arts Festival held annually in Inuvik, Northwest Territories — a ten-day summer event established in 1989 that draws Indigenous and northern artists from across the Arctic. The festival was conceived explicitly to provide a commercial and cultural platform for Inuit, Dene, and Métis artists who lacked southern market access.
The series ran through the early 2000s with strictly limited mintages, and distribution was heavily weighted toward collector channels rather than circulation.
