The reverse design boasts an astonishing level of dimension and depth through the use of the coin's concave shape, which lends itself beautifully to recreating the Library of Parliament's lavish interior and domed ceiling. A unique viewing perspective from the base of the marble statue of Queen Victoria immerses the viewer in the artwork, conveying the reading room's soaring height and spaciousness while creating the impression that they are on-site, looking upward at the ceiling. The intricately carved pine bookshelves that encircle the reading room are replicated on the reverse along the rim, further contributing to the 360-degree viewing experience. The coin's obverse depicts the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the face value.
