Battle of Britain Silver Coin – Battlefront
"The Battle of France is over. The Battle of Britain is about to begin..." – Sir Winston Churchill
By the summer of 1940, much of continental Europe was occupied by Nazi Germany, which had turned its sights across the English Channel to Great Britain. As a precursor to a possible invasion, the Luftwaffe began a series of aerial attacks on Britain's coastal defences in a battle for superiority in the skies. With this fine silver coin, the Royal Canadian Mint commemorates Canada's role in the Battle of Britain, which would prove to be one of the turning points of the Second World War.
A poignant commemoration of the contributions made by Canadian pilots and crew members during this pivotal chapter in the Second World War. Order yours today!
