Reverse description The central field depicts a stylised half-length portrait of Paul de Chomedey de Maisonneuve, founder of Montreal, facing slightly right and wearing a broad-brimmed hat and period costume, set against a schematic outline map of Canada to his left. Above this central composition rises a modern urban skyline rendered in a geometric, linear style, evoking the city of Montreal. The commemorative legend '500 YEARS OF AMERICA 1492-1992' arcs along the upper portion of the rim, and the denomination '50 DOLLARS' is inscribed along the lower rim in large block lettering.
