The Smilodon, often known as a saber-tooth (or sabre-tooth) cat, is an extinct genus of large predatory cats that lived in the Americas during the Pleistocene epoch (2.5 million to 11,000 years ago). They are known for their large and distinctive saber-like canines, which measured up to 7 inches in length. The Smilodon was a powerful predator, capable of taking down large prey such as bison, horses, and camels. In 2019, a 35,000-to-40,000-year-old bone was discovered in the prehistoric plains of southern Alberta, providing the first verified proof of Smilodon fatalis' existence.

The obverse of the coin carries the Susanna Blunt effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The obverse also features a special marking that includes four pearls symbolizing the four effigies that have graced Canadian coins, and the first and last years of her reign.

The reverse of the coin features a detailed engraving of a Smilodon saber-tooth cat, the iconic prehistoric predator. The Smilodon lunges towards the veiwer with a gaping jaw, about to strike!
