| Reverse description | The reverse presents a highly detailed, naturalistic depiction of a Red-Tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) in dynamic flight, wings fully extended and talons extended downward as if preparing to strike, rendered with exceptional relief and fine engraving detail across each individual feather. The bird occupies virtually the entire field, conveying a powerful sense of motion and scale. The legend CANADA arcs along the upper periphery, while 500 DOLLARS • 2017 curves along the lower periphery. The inscriptions 5 OZ, 9999 Au, and the engraver's initials ED appear in the left field. The composition exemplifies the Royal Canadian Mint's acclaimed wildlife bullion engraving tradition. |
