| Obverse description | A frontiersman in hat stands in high relief atop a tree stump, his right arm outstretched pointing toward ships in a harbour bay, with a ploughman and draft animal in the middle ground, a felled tree with wagon wheel in the lower left foreground, and a snow-capped mountain range in the background. The composition allegorically represents the agricultural, industrial, and natural resources of British Columbia. |
