EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking medallion commemorates the momentous occasion of the opening of the Canadian Vimy Ridge Memorial in 1936. The memorial, located in France, honors the bravery and sacrifice of over 11,000 Canadian soldiers who fought in the Battle of Vimy Ridge during World War I. The topographical design on the medallion represents the rugged terrain of the battlefield, while the military insignia pays tribute to the Canadian Expeditionary Force. The inscription reads "Vimy Ridge, April 9, 1917" and "Canadian Corps," serving as a poignant reminder of the significant role Canada played in the First World War. The historical significance of this event is captured in the intricate details of this commemorative ware medallion, making it a valuable addition to any collection of Canadian military history or World War I memorabilia.
