Comment
Part of a collection of coins commemorating the 90th anniversary of the RBLInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique poppy design on the reverse side, which was created by a collaboration between the Royal British Legion and the Poppy Factory. The poppy is a symbol of remembrance and hope, and it represents the legacy of those who have served and sacrificed for their country. The coin's design is a nod to the important work that the Royal British Legion and the Poppy Factory do in supporting veterans and their families.
