| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II at age 77, rendered by engraver Susan Taylor, depicted bare-headed and wearing a necklace and earrings. The legend ELIZABETH II flanks the portrait, with CANADA and the date 2008 completing the inscription around the field. The Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games logo appears to the left of the effigy, referencing the coin's thematic context within the official Olympic series. The portrait is executed in a refined, contemporary style consistent with the Susanna Blunt effigy generation used on Canadian coinage of this period. |
