Here's a coin depicting an alternate view of an airplane - from the inside of one still under construction!

This is a silver dollar issued by the Royal Canadian Mint ( RCM) in 2014. It was issued to mark the 75th anniversary of the Declaration of World War II. It presents three women hard at work inside a to-be-completed Avro 683 Lancaster X bomber.

Canada manufactured the British-designed Avro Lancaster heavy bomber under license during WWII at Hamilton, ON in a plant operated by Victory Aircraft Limited, Inc., a Crown Corporation created under the Department of Munitions and Supply Act of 1940; 430 of the bombers were produced at the plant.

The coin's commemorative reverse was designed by Sylvia Pecota. The proof coin had a maximum mintage of 7,500; just over 7,000 coins (7,017; 93.6%) were sold.




Here's an image of the actual interior of the plane; it could have served as a reference source for Pecota.

This 1999 25 cent Canadian coin featured a deHaviland Beaver bush plane, credited with opening the Canadian North. This rugged purpose-built powerful aircraft had great, short take-off and landing characteristics that made it ideal for the rugged mountainous, wet, often snow-covered terrain. It's passenger and cargo carrying abilities made it one of the best for the many challenges of our far North.

Conceived and built in Downsview, Ontario, Canada, much of the Beaver's early flight testing was done on floats.

This Canadian Silver 2005 50 cent coin was part of a set Honoring the Allies ultimate victory of WWII. This particular coin honoured the Canadians that fought alongside British pilots, seamen and ground corps during the nine-month siege of the coveted island nation during the Battle of Britain.

Here's the silver proof version of the 1994 D-day commemorative 50 pence struck for the UK by The Royal Mint. The coin was also struck in copper-nickel for circulation.

The commemorative reverse scene is meant to depict Allied invasion forces heading for France and the beaches of Normandy. The sea and sky are each filled with naval ships and aircraft, respectively. In the sky are seen Douglas C-47 troop/supply transports as well as Horsa gliders (the aircraft w/o engines that are being towed via tow lines); all of the aircraft are painted with their special striped "invasion" markings to help prevent friendly fire from targeting allied planes.

The design is the work of John Mills.
