| Reverse description | The reverse features a finely detailed depiction of an Osprey (Pandion haliaetus) perched atop a rocky outcropping, gripping a freshly caught fish in its talons, as engraved by Susan Taylor. The bird is rendered in high relief with meticulous feather detail, its head turned slightly to face the viewer. The scientific name PANDION HALIAETUS appears in italic lettering below the central device, with CANADA arcing prominently along the lower field. The denomination 50 CENTS and the date 2000 are inscribed vertically along the right periphery. A beaded inner border encircles the entire design. |
