| Obverse lettering | CANADA 50 CENTS ELIZABETH II |
| Reverse description | The reverse presents a three-tiered composition celebrating the Toonik Tyme festival of Nunavut. At the top, the stylized Toonik figure — a stout, masked Inuit character in traditional dress — is depicted dancing or striding, holding an object aloft, with the engraver's initials 'JM' to the right. In the middle register, a dog sled team is shown in full stride, driven by a figure reclining on the sled. The lower register features a snowmobile pulling a second rider on a sled, evoking the contrast of traditional and modern Arctic travel. The legend 'NUNAVUT 2001 NUNAVUT' arcs across the upper field, with all design elements rendered in polished proof finish against a mirror field. |
