The image shows the 2009 Proof Silver Dollar, commemorating the 100th Anniversary of Flight in Canada.
The coin's design features a young person with arms outstretched as if in flight, symbolizing the dream of aviation.
In the background, three significant Canadian aviation achievements are depicted: the Silver Dart, the Avro Arrow, and the 431 Bomber Squadron (Snowbirds).
The Silver Dart made Canada's first airplane flight on February 23, 1909, on a frozen lake in Nova Scotia.
This coin celebrates a century of Canadian aviation history, from the early days of the Silver Dart to Canada's established leadership in aviation by the end of World War II.
This coin features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Susanna Blunt. The inscription "ELIZABETH II D G REGINA" encircles the portrait, which translates to "Elizabeth II, by the Grace of God, Queen".
