Two Supporters hold the Shield: on the viewers left, a lion holds a lance with the Union Jack; on the right, a unicorn holds the royal flag of France. Above the Shield is an enlarged version of the Royal Crown, which reflects the monarchy of Canada.
Both the rim and the arms are beautifully enhanced by the selective application of gold plating, which strikes an elegant contrast between the gleam of gold and the silver shine of the mirror-like background. The selective gold plating continues on the portrait side, which features the effigy of King George VI by Sir T. We can not stress strongly enough what an opportunity this is! We believe that this landmark coin will become a numismatic delicacy, greedily pursued by future generations!
