Comment

For almost a century, the delicate poppy has commemorated fallen soldiers. Each flower has at least four petals, symbolizing all those affected by a soldier's death: mother, father, brothers, sisters, relatives and friends. One hundred years after the signing of the Treaty of Versailles, the red flower remains the emblem of the soldiers who died in the First World War, but also of those who perished in other wars. This very first poppy-shaped coin is a moving reminder of the cost of war, the fragility of peace, and the enduring hope of the men and women who answered their country's call.

Did you know that?
The First World War was the bloodiest conflict in which Canada took part, costing the lives of over 60,000 soldiers. Ypres (1915), the Somme (1916), Vimy Ridge (1917) and Passchendaele (1917) are just some of the battles in which Canadian and Newfoundland soldiers distinguished themselves. Their courage earned them the respect of the Allies and consolidated Canada's presence on the world stage.
In 1914, many Newfoundlanders enlisted, which led to a shortage of khaki uniforms. As a result, some were forced to wear blue leggings, hence the nickname "The Blue Puttees" given to the 1st Newfoundland Regiment.
In Newfoundland, for many generations, July 1st has been a stark reminder of the lives lost at the Battle of Beaumont-Hamel. It remains a solemn symbol of their unity, courage and immense spirit of sacrifice.

Packaging
The coin is encapsulated and presented in a double-shell case featuring the Royal Canadian Mint logo. The case comes with a black protective box.Automatically translated
