Design This set’s exclusive proof dollar features a selectively gold-plated reverse design by Canadian artist and RCM translation and official languages specialist, Armand Nina. An experimental model of Bell’s most famous contribution to science and technology, the telephone, appears to the left of the inventor, while Bell’s signature appears near the rim. The reverse includes the word “CANADA”, the face value, “DOLLAR” and the year “2022″. The selectively gold-plated obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. It’s been more than 20 years now that colleagues know me at the Mint as a French and English specialist, but, in fact, my true mother tongue is art. Although I dabble in various art forms, from the craft of batik to painting on canvas, from Baroque music to photography, my true speciality is the art of portraiture and I’m really honoured that my artwork graces the 2022 Proof Dollar. Armand Nina, Artist. At an early age, Alexander Graham Bell learned from his father that problems are challenges to be solved. He held on to this conviction throughout his 75 years, working to improve our lives and helping us navigate a modern world by breaking down barriers, bringing us closer together, and teaching us to embrace the hand-in-hand realms of science and nature. Elsie Myers Martin, Mathematician, choreographer and Bell descendent. He was baptized Alexander Bell-”Graham” came later. Bell added “Graham” to his name when he was 11 years old (he chose the name out of admiration for a family friend). Both his father and grandfather were also named Alexander Bell. Brantford, Ontario is the Telephone City. After accepting a teaching position in 1871, Bell divided his time between Boston and the family homestead in Brantford, Ont. Where he had a workshop for his sound experiments. He was in Brantford when he got the idea for his “electric telephone” that would later revolutionize communications, and the first long-distancetelephone call was made from Brantford to Paris, Ont.
