| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing a diamond diadem and pearl drop earrings, as sculpted by Dora de Pédery-Hunt. The queen's hair is elegantly styled and she wears a necklace of pearls at the base of the portrait. The legend CANADA arcs along the upper rim, while ELIZABETH II is inscribed along the lower rim. The denomination 50 CENTS appears in two lines to the left of the effigy in the field. The overall design presents a refined, mature portrait with fine relief detail on the crown's floral and geometric ornamentation. |
