1909 Round Leaves; Bow Tie Canada 5-cnet ICCS Certified AU-50

Round Leaves Variety: In 1909 the reverse designed in 1903 was modified, altering the rounded maple leaves to more pointed leaves which resembled holly leaves. These reverse designs are found in 1909 and 1910.
Bow Tie Variety: The Maltese Cross finial on the Imperial Crown depicted on the reverse design underwent three different style changes. From 1903 to 1910, the classic Maltese Cross was used, but due to space restrictions it resembled a bow tie more than a Maltese Cross.
