Double fillets run diagonally within the inner rectangle forming a saltire cross; within the arms of the cross a maple-leaf stamp, within the four triangles surrounding the cross a circular rosette stamp surrounded by small maple-leaf stamps, a circular and a rectangular stag stamp. On the lower cover double fillets form a frame within which is a lozenge-shaped eagle, a lozenge-shaped fleur-de-lis, and the foliate stamp. Diagonal double fillets divide the inner rectangle into lozenge-shaped and triangular compartments, each decorated with the circular rosette stamp, with the eagle, or with the maple-leaf stamp.
