Description obverse

The effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II facing right. ELIZABETH II D G REGINA 250 DOLLARS

Description reverse

A commanding ¾ portrait of a bald eagle looking across the coin's field towards the right, its piercing gaze and hooked beak signature features of this regal raptor. The eagle's feathers have a ruffled appearance with a greatly accentuated shape and texture that are portrayed with uncompromising depth and detail in the coin's extraordinary high relief. The coin is struck with a proof finish that provides an impeccable mirror-like shine across the background to accentuate the depth and visual impact of the engraving and extraordinary high relief. CANADA above, 2020 below.
