Canada is a constitutional monarchy with Elizabeth II, Queen of Canada as head of state.

Each of the coins devoted to a distinct theme, identified by Canadians as a cornerstone of country's heritage and one of the building blocks for its future.

Inscriptions along the rim: the year of minting divides themes of coin, title of state. In the center - maple leaf formed from human bodies.
