Comment
It was Major-General Sir Isaac Brock (1769-1812)'s effective defense of Upper Canada in 1812 that enabled Canada to become a transcontinental nation. Brock's initiative and bravery immediately made him a hero, and he is one of the best-known Canadian military figures of the War of 1812. His actions earned him a knighthood and membership of the Order of the Bath, as well as a host of other posthumous honors, including the official title of "Hero of Upper Canada".Packaging:
The coin is encapsulated and presented in a padded burgundy double-shell case, adorned with the Royal Canadian Mint logo, and protected by a magnificent custom box.
Interesting fact
