The Royal Canadian Legion welcomes anyone 18 or older who is a Canadian citizen or a citizen of an Allied nation to join and be part of a community dedicated to honouring and supporting Veterans.
Includes the Poppy
Two Poppies appear on the coin’s reverse: a Legion member offers one to a child and their mother on the inner core, while the Poppy on the rim is based on the Legion’s logo. In Canada, the Legion championed the Poppy as a symbol of Remembrance and continues to steward its meaning through the annual Poppy Campaign, shaping a national ritual of Remembrance and support.
A view of the reverse design, visible on one or both ends of the roll
Each coin included in the Special Wrap Roll has a reverse and obverse design. The production process and quality assurance for uncirculated Special Wrap Rolls allows for either the reverse design on both ends, or the reverse design on one end and the obverse on the other. It is not possible for the Mint to guarantee or foresee which of the two versions will be shipped.
The reverse design by Canadian artist Vladyslava Pashchenko features an adaptation of The Royal Canadian Legion royal crest in the core, brought to life in colour on the colourized coin. The Legion’s Latin motto, “MEMORIAM · EORUM · RETINEBIMUS” (meaning “We Will Remember Them”), is set behind silhouettes of a Legion member offering a Poppy flower to a child with their mother. Inscribed along the outer rim are “THE ROYAL CANADIAN LEGION” and “LA LÉGION ROYALE CANADIENNE”, along with “100 YEARS / ANS” and the double dates “1926-2026” reflecting the 100-year anniversary. The Legion’s Poppy logo appears between the two micro-engraved security marks. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
