Best Answer

The fronts and backs of coins are called the obverse and reverse sides respectively. The main image, usually the Head of State, is embossed on the obverse side. The embossed image on Canadian Coins has always been the head of the king or queen of the United Kingdom and Canada at the time the coin was minted.
