2019 Canadian $3 75th Anniversary of the Normandy Campaign: D-Day at Juno Beach - 1/4 oz Fine Silver Coin
The first step into battle takes incredible courage.
On June 6, 1944, 14,000 Canadians stepped forward and fought to secure a beachhead on an 8-km stretch of Normandy coast. Many fell before reaching the shore; still, the brave Canadians pushed on, advancing farther than any of the Allies and clearing the way for the invading forces that followed.
This powerful coin design honours the Canadian soldiers who landed on Juno Beach and helped secure an Allied foothold in Western Europe. Although their boot prints in the sand have long washed away, their imprint on history will endure forever.
Your pure silver coin is a tribute to those who came ashore on D-Day. Order today.
Features
BEAUTIFULLY CRAFTED IN PURE SILVER: Your D-Day commemorative piece captures the moment Canadian soldiers set foot on Juno Beach on the morning of June 6, 1944.
A STIRRING IMAGE: With its image of a boot print in the sand, your coin captures the gilded essence of the landings on Juno Beach.
THE WAVE'S CONTOURS ECHO THE NORMANDY COASTLINE: Below the boot print, a wave laps at the shore, its contours echoing the Normandy coastline.
A FOOTSTEP THAT LED TO A FOOTHOLD: The boot print belongs to the young soldier featured on the 2019 proof dollar. Both coins are part of a year-long journey of remembrance; each one is a different chapter in the story of Canada in the Normandy Campaign.
EXCEPTIONAL REALISM: Innovative finishes mimic the granular nature of the sand and the reflective quality of the water.
REMEMBERING CANADA'S ROLE: Canadians played an important role on D-Day and throughout the Battle of Normandy. This is our way of honouring their legacy.
NO GST/HST!
Design
A soldier's first step onto Juno Beach is preserved for all time in this poignant design by Glen Loates. Your coin features a military boot print in the sand, its deep indentation and crisp lines conveying the weight of the soldier's resolve as he moves towards his objective. Below the boot print, a wave laps at the shore, its contours echoing the Normandy coastline. The word "JUNO" fills the space between the boot print and the water, and sits atop the anniversary years "1944 – 2019" that are linked by a maple leaf insignia from the Second World War. The word "CANADA" is engraved along the upper edge of the coin.
Packaging
Your encapsulated coin is packaged in a custom folder that allows you to easily display and safely store your special keepsake.
