| Reverse description | The reverse presents an elaborate heraldic landscape composition centred on the Royal Arms of Canada in high relief, flanked by the lion and unicorn supporters beneath a Tudor crown, with the motto A MARI USQUE AD MARE on a scroll at the base of the central shield. Surrounding this central heraldic device is an intricate panoramic border populated with meticulously engraved renditions of iconic Canadian birds, including a great horned owl, common loon, Atlantic puffin, peregrine falcon, blue jay, bohemian waxwing, and numerous others, set among native foliage and naturalistic landscape elements. The composition fills the entire field to the inner rim, demonstrating exceptional depth of relief and engraving artistry. The legend DESIDERANTS MELIOREM PATRIAM A MARI USQUE AD MARE is incorporated within the design, and the engraver's initials CBS appear discreetly in the field. |
