The first coin in your subscription depicts Canadian soldiersin action during the Battle of Neuve-Chapelle. In the centre, an 18-pounder field gun is manned by three Canadian gunners; billowing clouds fill the air to the right, from the ongoing bombardment, while ammunition on the ground to the left are a reminder of the constant nature of the initial artillery attack. Behind them, a sergeant stands and observes theaccuracy of the shot's trajectory through binoculars. The lower portion of this poignant image isframed by a banner; in its centre, selective gold plating showcases the winged figure of "Victory," as it appeared on the Victory Medalthat was awarded to the allied soldiers of the First World War. The effigy of King George V, who was the reigning monarch at the time, is found on the obverse.
