KM#50.1 - Mniejszy napis na awersie.
KM#50.2 - Większy napis na awersie.

Istnieją 2 odmiany w 1982 roku, które są łatwe do rozróżnienia na podstawie pisma.

Awers
Matryca 1 - cienkie pismo.
Kość 2 - pismo pogrubione.

Schön przypisuje KM# 50.1 Królewskiej Mennicy Kanadyjskiej, KM# 50.2 matrycę 1 ("matowy relief") mennicy w Karlsruhe, a matrycę 2 ("błyszczący relief z ostrymi konturami") mennicy w Paryżu.

Moneta w plastikowej kieszeni z Monnaie de Paris. Niewielka część francuskiego nakładu została wybrana jako ESSAI, ale bez oznaczenia na monecie.
