Obverse description Effigy of Queen Elizabeth II depicted at approximately 37 years of age, wearing a tiara and facing right, as rendered in the Arnold Machin portrait style adopted for Canadian coinage. The sovereign's bare-shouldered, draped bust occupies the central field. The surrounding legend reads ELIZABETH II flanked by the anniversary dates 1988 and 2013, with the denomination 50 DOLLARS completing the inscription.

Reverse description Two stylized sugar maple leaves are depicted in the central field: a larger, highly detailed foreground leaf rendered in frosted matte silver with finely engraved vein work, overlapping a crescent-shaped larger leaf behind it that bears selective gold plating, creating a striking two-tone contrast. The radially brushed background field with fine vertical line texture evokes the design tradition of the iconic Canadian Silver Maple Leaf bullion series. The bilingual legend CANADA arcs across the upper field, flanked on either side by the fineness marks 9999, while FINE SILVER 5 OZ ARGENT PUR curves along the lower field. A commemorative cartouche at centre-bottom bears the inscription 25 YRS ANS alongside the designer's initials JLS, marking the 25th anniversary of the Silver Maple Leaf program.
