Today you can honour our brave heroes and support those still affected by conflicts past and present with an enduring token of remembrance — the official Lest We Forget Remembrance Coin Set.
Two coins —a solid sterling silver coin and a cupro-nickel crown layered in precious palladium-platinum
Struck to honour the memory of all those who served during The Great War, The Lest We Forget Proof Remembrance Coin Set is a very special release, this set of two coins features a striking silhouette of a British soldier of The First World War and an inscription which reads, ‘Lest We Forget.’ Each coin bears the enduring symbol of remembrance — the field poppy inspired by the famous poem ‘In Flanders Fields’ by Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae.
Officially endorsed by the Lest We Forget Association
Exclusively available from The Bradford Exchange, this coin set is endorsed by the Lest We Forget Association, the registered charity which supports the welfare of disabled Armed Forces and Merchant Navy personnel, both active and otherwise, in hospital or at home.
Limited Edition issue
Issued to commemorate the armistice, which silenced the guns of The First World War, and to pay tribute to those who fought during ‘The Great War’ only 499 Lest We Forget Remembrance Coin Sets have been issued worldwide.
Precious metals and colour accenting - a masterpiece of minting
The silver coin is struck in 925 Sterling silver – the traditional purity for commemorative crown editions. The base metal crown is layered in pure Palladium Platinum – over three times scarcer than gold and the poppies are accented in red.
Features the ‘Lone Soldier’ motif
Each coin in the set features the ‘Lone Soldier’ motif – depicting the soldier resting on his rifle paying his respects to a fallen comrade in Flanders Fields. The coin motif was inspired by the poem In Flanders Field and features the poppy – our national symbol of remembrance.
Free - Presentation case and certificate of Authenticity
This special Lest We Forget Remembrance Coin Set comes presented in a bespoke presentation case and is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity, attesting to the set’s low worldwide limited-edition status.
