A new obverse with Queen Elizabeth II's portrait showing more mature facial features and wearing a tiara was introduced on all denominations in 1965. The caribou on a 25-cent piece dates back to 1936 when a change in the sovereign's image on circulation currency prompted the Canadian government to modify the designs on the reverse side of coins as well. The caribou design was created by Canadian artist Emanuel Hahn and was first used in 1937.
Standard issue Canadian 25-cent quarters dated 1937 - 1967 contain a silver composition of 80% silver and 20% copper.
Actual silver weight (ASW): 0.15 troy ounces (troy oz)

Designed by Emanuel Hahn, the coin features a left facing image of a Caribou head. The denomination sits between the antlers. Text to the left reads "CANADA", while the text to the right features the date.
