Beschreibung Rückseite

Features an artist's rendition of the doomed Franklin expedition (1845-1848). The coin's corrugated edge resembles jagged ice, which has HMS Terror firmly in its grasp on the reverse. In a desperate attempt to survive, the surviving crew and officers are seen abandoning the ship, with one group in the distance hauling a lifeboat towards King William Island. CANADA above, 2020 below.
