Tomb of the Unknown Soldier Pure Gold Coin (2000–2025) 2025 Canada
Description
A nameless soldier, an unknown past, a timeless legacy. Since its inauguration in 2000, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in front of the National War Memorial in Ottawa has served as a focal point for Canadians as they gather to reflect upon the valiant heroes who laid down their lives, and those who continue to fight for peace and freedoms on our behalf.
A companion piece to the 2025 Fine Silver Proof Dollar, this 99.99% pure gold coin pays tribute to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier on its reverse. Framed by a poppy shape, the close-up view of the Tomb is a familiar one to the coin artist, Mary-Ann Liu, who designed its sculptural elements. Now, 25 years later (2025), she is once again paying her respects to Canada’s Unknown Soldier, who, even in death, serves his country by silently representing every Canadian lost to war.
Join us in honouring Canada’s Unknown Soldier.
