2022 $20 Canada Silver Proof Ngc Pf69 Remembrance Day Poppy First Releases

From the great victories and tragic losses of the First World War came our most enduring symbol of service and sacrifice: the red poppy, which is colorfully highlighted on this Remembrance Day coin. Blooming in the foreground and in the fields of the fallen behind the weary officer, the poppy imbues this mournful scene with hope. It is a lasting reminder of those who fought and sacrificed everything; of the courage of those who serve; of the consequences of war, and a commitment to peace-lest we forget. Comes packaged in a black clamshell with black beauty box and a certificate of authenticity.

Mintage of 8,500 coins. Obverse: The obverse's coin-shaped base features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt with an engraved legend that includes the words "CANADA, " "2022" and 20 DOLLARS. Reverse: Designed by artist Miko Maciaszek, your coin's reverse features a poignant depiction of a weary captain of the Canadian Army Medical Corps sitting against a tree and taking a moment to reflect after the Second Battle of Ypres during the First World War.

Selective color highlights the blooming poppies in the foreground, while in the background more poppies appear between the crosses that mark the graves of the fallen. These poppies represent hope and eternal life through remembrance, and serve as a reminder that a soldier's sacrifice should never be forgotten. Sovereign coin backed by the Royal Canadian Mint.
