Comment
The obverse has been retouched, especially on the garment. The retouching was done by Myron Cook, who actually modified the work of Thomas Shingles, who himself had modified the work of Mary Gillick.
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1964 Canadian Silver Dollar coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Confederation Conferences, which were a series of meetings held in 1864 that ultimately led to the formation of the Dominion of Canada. The coin's design features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and a depiction of the Confederation Conferences on the other. It was minted in a limited quantity of 25,000 coins and is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists.
