A new silver coin, with a face value of $20, has been issued by the Royal Canadian Mint to honor Canadians who serve and have served the nation of Canada on Remembrance Day or Poppy Day. , especially since the First World War.

Before presenting this coin to you, I want to point out that not only in Spain, but practically throughout Europe, it is difficult to obtain coins issued in Canada. But now we have a very good option, it is PowerCoin , the store that has these and many more coins and that we recommend from here.

Returning to the coin in question, it pays tribute to the fallen with the representation of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Ottawa, a tomb that contains the remains of an unknown Canadian soldier from the First World War, and in which, during the ceremony On Remembrance Day on November 11, generations and generations of Canadians place red poppies on it to honor those who gave their lives in the name of the country's freedom and peace.

Located at a sacred site of Canadian national memory such as the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Ottawa, the scene on the reverse of the coin shows a veteran involving his grandson in an act of remembrance for the fallen, helping to ensure that traditions (and the promise to never forget) are maintained in each new generation. The use of selective color enhances the red color of poppies, which are often placed on top or at the base of a cenotaph or memorial as a mark of respect after Remembrance Day ceremonies.

While the obverse of the piece shows the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II made by Susanna Blunt, and next to it there is also the double date of her reign and the four pearls that symbolize the four effigies that adorned the Canadian coins.
