The reverse of the coin features the image by Tony Bianco and travels to the True North for a glimpse of the polar bear (Ursus maritimus) at play. The engraved scene is a touching portrait of a mother and cub swimming in the cold waters of the Canadian Arctic, their closeness reflected in the way they are positioned as they emerge from the icy depths. Textural engraving adds a sense of movement across the surface of the water, where the ebb and flow generated by the swimmers' movements pushes the floating ice right to the coin's edge. The theme continues onto the fully engraved edge, which mimics the look of jagged ice and gives the coin its unique shape. On top of the reverse, the inscription: "CANADA" – the issuing country. On the bottom, the inscription: "2019" – the year of issue. The obverse of the coin features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the inscriptions: "ELIZABETH II" – the name of the Queen, "D·G·REGINA" – Dei Gratia Regina and "50 DOLLARS" – the face value.
