.510 ozt Highway of Heros 9999 Silver $10

This coin pays tribute to fallen Canadian soldiers and the spontaneous grassroots movement that led to the designation of a portion of Highway 401 as the "Highway of Heroes".

The highway section, stretching 172 kilometers between Canadian Forces Base Trenton and Toronto, is where Canadians gather to pay respects as fallen soldiers are transported for forensic examination.

Profits from the sale of this coin were designated to support military charities.

The reverse design depicts a convoy on the highway, symbolizing the solemn journey of fallen soldiers and their families.

This coin features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Susanna Blunt. The inscription "ELIZABETH II D G REGINA" encircles the portrait, which translates to "Elizabeth II, by the Grace of God, Queen".
