| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a detailed sculptural rendering adapted from Emily Carr's 1912 totem-themed painting 'Tsatsisnukomi', showcasing a monumental Northwest Coast Indigenous totem pole surmounted by a thunderbird with dramatically outstretched wings. The thunderbird's wings span nearly the full width of the coin's field, and a human or animal figure is carved beneath at the base of the pole, all rendered in high relief with fine engraved detail. An architectural structure is visible in the background, consistent with Carr's original composition. The reverse legend along the lower rim reads 'EMILY CARR' flanked by her birth and death years '1871' and '1945', with 'CANADA' arcing boldly across the upper field. |
