Comment
Part of a series depicting WWI eventsInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Armistice Day, which marked the end of World War I. The coin's design features a poppy, a symbol of remembrance and hope, and the words "Lest We Forget" are inscribed on the reverse. The coin's gold plating and limited mintage make it a unique and valuable collector's item.
