2002 Vimy Ridge 5-Cent Coin

On April 9th, 1917, the Canadian Army launched an assault on a small hill in France during World War I. Six days later, the Canadians took Vimy Ridge, which was a turning point in the war.

The Vimy Ridge 2002 5-Cent Sterling Silver Coin honours those brave, victorious Canadians. Its reverse depicts the towering pylons of the Vimy Ridge Memorial. In the foreground is one of the monument's most important elements, a heroic figure of Canada brooding over the graves of her valiant dead.
