The reverse image by Canadian artist Tony Bianco has been selectively enhanced with luxurious colour to draw the eye to the Royal Cypher (EIIR), St. Edward's Crown, and the garter sash, while a high-tech glittering effect makes the diamond-encrusted maple leaf brooch sparkle. The overall design is one of celebration, heightened by the flowing form of the garter sash and the frieze of maple leaves. The swirling pattern at the top of the design includes a stylized Tudor rose, and evokes a sense of fireworks in honour of a Sovereign who is admired and beloved around the world.
