This coin is not just a piece of silver; it's a solemn memorial for a solemn occasion, a powerful tribute to the one and the many who have sacrificed for our great nation. Crafted from 99.99% pure silver by the Royal Canadian Mint, it features a poignant image—the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, situated in front of the National War Memorial in Ottawa, Ontario. This iconic monument stands as the heart of Canada's Remembrance Day ceremonies, symbolizing the ultimate sacrifices made for our freedom and peace. Design: The reverse side, designed by Canadian artist Silvia Pecota, depicts a poignant scene at the National War Memorial in Ottawa, Ontario. It shows a Veteran placing a red poppy on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, where many others have already laid theirs as a sign of respect. By involving his grandchild, he is helping to ensure that the traditions of Remembrance are passed down to future generations of Canadians. The obverse side features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II created by Susanna Blunt. This side also includes a special marking with four pearls, representing the four different portraits that have appeared on Canadian coins, along with the double date of her reign. Key Features: Issued in honor of Remembrance Day on November 11th, this coin serves as a heartfelt tribute to those who have served, those who continue to serve, and those who laid down their lives in service to Canada. The selective coloring skillfully highlights the red poppies, a powerful symbol of remembrance. Poppies are a time-honored tradition in Canada, often placed upon or near cenotaphs and memorials as a mark of respect following Remembrance Day ceremonies. As a part of your collection, this coin will inspire reflection, keeping the memory of our heroes alive and reminding us of the sacrifices made for our cherished freedoms.
