150th Anniversary of the Birth of L. M. Montgomery
The obverse features the left-facing bust of King Charles III, with the year 2024 inscribed below. The Latin legend reads:
CHARLES III DΒ·GΒ·REX 2024

The reverse showcases a detailed profile portrait of L. M. Montgomery (1874-1942), the iconic Canadian author best known for Anne of Green Gables. The design pays homage to Montgomeryβs creativity, transitioning from an image of her penning her famous work (symbolized by the inkwell and portfolio) to Anne Shirley gazing at Prince Edward Islandβthe beloved setting of her stories. Her signature and a cat drawing, a personal touch she often included in book inscriptions, also appear.
