| Obverse description | Central device consisting of a bouquet of mixed flora including roses and maple sprigs, rendered in relief against a flat field, with the stems converging at the base. The circumferential legend reads AGRICULTURE & COMMERCE BAS CANADA, distributed around the periphery in Roman capitals within a toothed border. The composition is characteristic of the bouquet sou type widely circulated in Lower Canada during the late 1830s currency shortage. |
