| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, depicted at approximately 77 years of age, wearing a necklace and earrings. The portrait, engraved by Susan Taylor, presents the Queen in a dignified, mature likeness consistent with the fourth definitive Canadian portrait. The legend arcs around the upper field in Latin, identifying the monarch by name and title. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The triangular format here wasn't arbitrary whimsy — Canada had issued a triangular silver coin as early as 1995 with its Polar Bear piece, establishing the shape as a deliberate novelty within the collector program rather than a circulation gimmick. This 2008 issue belongs to a multi-year series documenting early Canadian trades and rural life, with milk delivery chosen as one of the defining domestic industries of pre-refrigeration Canada, when horse-drawn routes and glass bottle returns structured the rhythm of entire neighborhoods.
Triangular planchets present genuine striking challenges; uneven metal flow at the corners is a documented production concern across this RCM series.
