Monnaie de Paris - Canada VE Day 80th Anniversary 1/4€ Coin

To mark the 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day, Monnaie de Paris has issued a special series commemorating the Allied forces who liberated Europe.

This coin honours both British and Canadian forces during the liberation of Germany. It features a scene from Munich, where a solider raises a Canadian Red Ensign proudly flies alongside, symbolising their joint efforts in the final stages of the war. The backdrop captures the urban streets of Germany, celebrating the moment of surrender and freedom.

The reverse displays a spiral of Allied flags symbolising unity, with three stars referencing the Liberty Road, the path of Allied advance across Europe.

Struck to brilliant uncirculated standard, this coin is an enduring tribute to Allied unity and is a significant piece for collectors of WWII history.
