The Masterpiece Poppy Coin – a great feat of minting techniques and craftsmanship

Truth be told, there are so many incredible features on this year’s Masterpiece Poppy Coin that I genuinely don’t know where to begin.

Nacre, to give Mother of Pearl its proper name, makes up the outer coating of Pearls – one of the most sought-after gemstones on the planet. And due to its nature, means that each Poppy crafted from it is completely unique.

CB preferred - The FOUR Remembrance Poppy Commemoratives every collector should know about…
Charles Bryne, Director General of The Royal British Legion

“As Director General of The Royal British Legion, I would like to thank those that have supported the charity by purchasing one of our partnership products over the years. I am very proud that together, we have achieved the amazing milestone of raising over £1 Million for The Royal British Legion.

This is a great achievement, which will allow us to continue to help those who need us the most. Partners like The Westminster Collection enable us to support our beneficiaries, providing lifelong support to the Armed Forces community, serving men and women, veterans, and their families when they need it most.

This Remembrance period, we will ask the nation to commemorate the service and sacrifice that many friends, allies, and Commonwealth nations made alongside Britain in defence of its freedoms, values, and way of life.

Our partnership coins and commemoratives are a reminder to us to take that time to remember and reflect, and this is why our partnership with The Westminster Collection is so very special to us.

Please accept my thanks for all of the support that you have shown the Legion in enabling us to reach this milestone, and most importantly help us to support the Armed Forces Community.”
