What Are Your Coins Favorite 2015 Releases.

My hands-down favorite RCM coin of 2015 is the $20 Fine Silver coin that commemorates the 100th Anniversary of the World War I poem In Flanders Fields.

I find the artistry of the coin's reverse design to be exceptional - kudos to Canadian artist Laurie McGaw. The design incorporates well-chosen imagery from John McCrae's famous poem, is nicely-balanced around the powerful central figure of a mourning soldier and is a moving tribute to the fallen. The use of King George V's portrait on the obverse is also a nice touch which draws one back to the coinage of the WWI era.

The coin is also a celebration of what the simple red poppy flower (seen to the left of the soldier) has become in countries around the world - a symbol of remembrance of those that gave their life for the benefit of others.

For a commemorative coin collector such as me, it is almost the "perfect" coin.

I had forgotten about many of these coins. I wonder if some great coins are just getting lost in the noise of so many releases. It shows its easy to forget about coins with so many. The 27mm flanders coin is also nice but too small.

Commens;
Indeed in terms of commemorative design - $20. Flanders coin was very well designed and yes balanced...my top war commemorative coin for 2015-
Overall though I would rank at the top- the big coins - unlike this years paint versions...the 2015 gold enhancements in big bold 5 oz dimensions were really appealing...and contributed to a greater appreciation of those truly classic original designs that jingle in our vehicle's cup holders and pockets as pocketchange...(thanks for this thread pocket change 50)...the 5 oz size highlighted how well designed those circulation coins truly are.
The paint versions...just don't have that same effect.
Other notable for myself was the very eye candy aspects of the three coin three different finishes of the singing moon masks set...red enamel especially...
