The obverse features the historic effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Arnold Machin.

Did you know...
The silver dollar issued in 1980 was one of the first Canadian coins to feature a polar bear on its reverse. It certainly wouldn't be the last: Ursus maritimus has been a fixture on Canada's $2 circulation coin since 1996, and it is frequently featured on our numismatic coins – it even appeared on a square-shaped coin in 2010.
Two-thirds of the world's polar bears are found in Canada and some of the largest populations reside along the northwest coast of Baffin Island, the largest of the Arctic islands (it's also the fifth largest island in the world).
