Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design, created by sculptor and designer, Paul Day, which depicts a poppy field with the words "Lest We Forget" and "Remembrance Day 2012" inscribed at the bottom. The poppy is a symbol of remembrance and hope, and this design was specifically created to commemorate the sacrifices made by soldiers during World War I.
