In each version of the coin, the Queen’s name, ELIZABETH II, appears at the top. The denomination along with the issue date of each coin is shown beneath her portrait. The reverse of the coin shows a maple leaf, which is the national symbol for Canada. The name of the country and the amount and purity of the platinum are also shown on the reverse side.
