Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that commemorates Remembrance Day, a day to honor the men and women who have served in the military, particularly those who lost their lives during World War I. The coin's design includes a red poppy, which is a symbol of remembrance and hope, and the words "Lest We Forget" are inscribed at the bottom of the coin. The use of selective red ink in the design adds a touching tribute to the fallen soldiers.
