Design anatomy
Two leaves, joined at the stems
The larger leaf rises to the left; the smaller leaf extends right. CANADA crowns the field, paired 9999 inscriptions flank it, and FINE SILVER 2 OZ ARGENT PUR follows the lower rim. CG identifies Celia Godkin.
Bilingual silver legend
The lower inscription states metal and weight in English and French.
Dated security leaf
A small laser-engraved maple carries the issue-year digits where the product record supports it.
Radial field
Fine lines organize the field without replacing the leaf study.
Annual register
Nine dates, one reverse design
The register records portrait era, product number, security evidence and mintage wording without treating each date as a new reverse.
