The year 2015 marks the 100th anniversary of the poem In Flanders Fields, which was written by Canadian physician Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae amid the horrors of the Second Battle of Ypres in May 1915.

To mark this anniversary, this fine silver coin is a solemn remembrance of those who bravely served their country abroad in a time of war-lest we forget.
