The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. The reverse image by Canadian artist Doug Comeau is a front-facing portrait of a wood bison. The bison’s distinctive shoulder hump stands in contrast to the darker-coloured mane and the curved horns. The bison is standing still, its calm gaze fixed upon the intrusion in its otherwise natural environment. Above it, the word “CANADA” is engraved, while the face value of “20 DOLLARS” and the date “2014” are engraved below the wood bison. The coin also features edge lettering with the words “1 OZ FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR” engraved in a repeating pattern around the coin’s edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"West Edmonton Coin \u0026 Stamp","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51176345632900,"sku":"128106","price":207.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0967\/3447\/8468\/files\/2014_Bison_Portrait_Reverse__59054.1503355232.1280.1280.jpg?v=1759537600","url":"https:\/\/www.westedmontoncoinandstamp.com\/products\/2014-20-fine-silver-coin-the-bison-a-portrait","provider":"West Edmonton Coin \u0026 Stamp","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
