Design:
Esteemed former Royal Canadian Mint Senior Engraver, Susan Taylor, depicts Lady Peace in profile on the medal's reverse: a young woman imbued with quiet strength and radiant hope, inspired by ancient Greek statuary and the Greek notion of dēmokratia (democracy).
Taylor's Lady Peace wears a crown of maple leaves and olive branches, representing the core Canadian values of peace, order and good government, and is ringed by the words pax (peace) and A Mari Usque Ad Mare—"From Sea to Sea"—Canada's official motto.
Famed former U.S. Mint Chief Engraver John Mercanti sets freedom in motion with his fresh interpretation of Lady Liberty on the medal's obverseface.
Striding into the future with a sword in her right hand, she vanquishes a pair of vipers that symbolize the forces of evil in the world. In her left handshe holds aloft the torch for which she is renowned, its laurel-leaf wrapping an emblem of victory over oppression.
The original motto of the United States, E pluribus unum—"Out of Many, One"—and the Latin word libertas (liberty) encircle Mercanti's stylized figure.
