The top aspect of the coin has the Olympic logo, its denomination, and the wording in the same spot. The finishes consist of two different styles that had never been used on Canadian coinage until this set was released. The first finish is a satin or frosted effect which adorns the coin. The second finish is a proof finish, which consists of frosted lettering and a design set off against a brilliant mirror field. The Royal Canadian Mint had to obtain special equipment to achieve the desired finish. See photos for detailed condition of each coin.
