| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse, engraved by Tony Bianco, depicts Canadian Lieutenant-Colonel John McCrae seated and writing his celebrated poem 'In Flanders Fields,' composed during the Second Battle of Ypres in 1915. A scene of battle unfolds in the background, evoking the Western Front landscape, while stylised poppies frame the brass-coloured inner core of the bimetallic composition. The word REMEMBER arcs prominently across the upper field, with the year 2015 and the word SOUVENIR appearing in the lower field. The design serves as a centennial commemoration of both the poem and the sacrifice of Canadian soldiers in the First World War. |

Canada's standard circulation toonie underwent a deliberate design intervention for 2015's Remembrance issue, timed to coincide with the centenary of the First World War. The Royal Canadian Mint quietly released these into general circulation rather than restricting them to numismatic packaging — meaning most Canadians encountered one without knowing it was anything other than pocket change.
KM#1854 is distinct from the standard poppy toonie issues by its specific reverse design authorization that year, though misattribution between the various commemorative toonie types from this period is common even in established references.
