背面描述	A scenic landscape of Lasqueti Island rendered in low relief, featuring rolling terrain, coastal waters, and a treeline beneath a sky with celestial elements, all enclosed within a decorative foliate vine border consistent with the obverse. The date '19 98' appears in the lower field, integrated into the ornamental border. The legend 'LASQUETI' arcs along the upper periphery in incuse Latin lettering. The overall engraving style is hand-crafted and folk-art in character, typical of the Lasqueti Mint's artisanal production.

附加信息	Lasqueti Island, a small off-grid community in British Columbia's Strait of Georgia, has operated largely outside mainstream infrastructure since the 1970s — no BC Hydro connection, no car ferry. The token was issued by the so-called Lasqueti Mint as part of a local exchange experiment consistent with the island's long-running countercultural self-sufficiency ethic. Whether it saw genuine circulation or was primarily a novelty issue remains unclear from surviving documentation.
