Canada has a long history of respect for our war veterans. The Royal Canadian Mint pays tribute to these veterans in their release of this Veteran $10 Fine Silver Coin. This uncirculated coin features a powerful image created by E. Gobel. This image depicts two veterans of diverse generations that are joined by the love of country. The reverse side, designed by Susanna Blunt features Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in right profile at 77 years old, surrounded by the Latin inscription "ELIZABETH II D. G. REGINA".
