| Reverse description | The reverse features a deeply sculpted scene commemorating the centenary of Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae's poem 'In Flanders Fields.' At centre, a World War I Canadian officer in full uniform sits in profile facing left, writing in a notebook amidst a field of blooming poppies rendered in high relief. Three grave crosses rise from the poppy-strewn ground behind him, evoking the fallen soldiers of the Great War. The field of the coin is filled with the first stanza of the poem inscribed in both English and French in flowing script, partially obscured by the central figure. The legend CANADA arcs along the lower rim within the poppy field, and the dates 1915-2015 along with the denomination 100 DOLLARS appear along the upper periphery; the engraver's initials 'TB' are visible in the lower right field. |
