One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design that was created by a Canadian Indigenous artist, Tim Whiteduck, to commemorate National Indigenous Peoples Day. The design depicts a stylized image of the sun, which symbolizes the passing of knowledge and traditions from one generation to the next, and is surrounded by a pattern of rays that represent the connections between the natural world and Indigenous culture.
