| Reverse description | The Montreal city skyline viewed from the river is depicted in relief across the central field, with a freighter moored along the waterfront in the foreground. The official Montreal 1976 Olympics logo — the five interlocking rings surmounted by the stylised fleur-de-lis motif — appears in high relief at the top of the field. The legend 'XXIe Olympiade Montréal 1976' arcs across the lower field, with the maker's signature 'Huguenin Switzerland' incused in small letters at the bottom. |
