Royal Canadian Mint engravers used many reference images of Westminster Abbey to enhance the details in the background of Her Majesty.

The obverse field is a new finish just introduced by the Royal Canadian Mint, featuring a subtle stippled finish.

ABOUT THE ROYAL CANADIAN MINT

The Royal Canadian Mint is known as one of the most reputable mints in the world. The Ottawa Branch of the Royal Mint opened in 1908 and was renamed The Royal Canadian Mint in 1931 when control was transferred to the Canadian government. Their high standards for excellence and quality allowed them to be the first refinery to manufacture 9999 fine gold bullion coins in 1982, as well as the first to reach 99999 fine gold purity in 1998.
