Veteran Coins, as the name suggests provides coins designating the owner as a VETERAN of the Canadian Armed Forces. All coins come personalized providing the member has provided the necessary information.

So far we offer four coins at $40 each;

Traditional Veteran edition (pictured above) which offers the cornflake we all came to love.

Non Traditional (not shown) which offers a more Canadian logo (as depicted in the Francophonie Version)

French version (pictured above) which is the same Canadian logo as the Non Traditional and, was made with our Francophonie Brothers and Sisters in mind.

And the Cornwallis Coin (also pictured above) to commemorate the members of our Armed Forces who attended this institute of higher enhanced learning.

I’ve strived to provide you with a high quality keepsake worth treasuring for the rest of your life and, believe that all of the coins offered do just that.

Made from gold plated zinc in a 2" die struck and 4mm thick (most challenge coins are 3.5 mm), they have cross-cut diamond edging on front as well as back and, reeded rim edging on the side which is the edging that legal tender uses.

Being larger, antique looking and heavier than pretty much all other challenge coins, your Veteran Coin will have a warm and quality heft to it when held in the hand.

Except for the Cornwallis coin these are serialized with the name of the purchaser vetted to the best of our ability and kept on record.

The front of the Traditional and Non Traditional versions centers around the combined forces badge superimposed on a Canadian Flag where arced across the top are the words “CANADIAN ARMED FORCES” and below, is the vow “ON GUARD FOR THEE.”

Across the logo in large letters is the word “VETERAN” making the purpose of the challenge coin unmistakable and below there is a blank area for your years of service to be engraved in.

On the back, arced across the top is the Latin phrase "HOC DEFENDIMUS" (Latin for “THIS, WE DEFEND” and across the bottom is “SEMPER PARATUS” meaning ‘ALWAYS READY.”

A blank area for your unit, corps or regiment is roughly in the center and below that is room for your Rank, Name and Initials to be engraved. At the bottom is a small space for the coin serial number.

It is a rustic yet beautiful coin with an antique gold plated finish enhanced by a 3D molded front and back giving it a warm qualify look, feel as well as a confident weight & heft when held in the hand.

The laser engraving as well as shipping and handling (Canada only) are included in the price, and both are done at or about the same time so it is necessary for orders to be pre paid.

The engraving is worth more than the price of the coin itself and makes this an excellent deal for a memento that you or the recipient will cherish forever.

CD2/CD1 ??? Not correct. Years of service would indicate what level of CD.
 
Thanks, tried to edit but it won't allow. Can you alert the admin for us as you seem to be tuned into this fairly well.
