Commemoration: The coin celebrates the 225th anniversary of Juan Pérez's 1774 voyage along the Pacific Northwest coast, which marked the first European contact with the Haida people.

Design Elements: The coin features a depiction of Pérez's ship, the Santiago, alongside a Haida canoe with paddlers and a figure holding a welcoming gesture.

Dates and Inscriptions: The dates "1774" and "1999" are inscribed on the coin, along with "CANADA DOLLAR" and the initials "DJC" for the designer, Dora de Pédery-Hunt.

The image displays the obverse side of a Canadian Silver Dollar, featuring a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. The inscription "ELIZABETH II" and "D. G. REGINA" (Dei Gratia Regina, meaning "By the Grace of God, Queen") are visible around the effigy. This design is typical of Canadian coinage featuring the reigning monarch.
