| Reverse description | Colorized commemorative design depicting a helmeted Allied soldier in a kneeling firing position, aiming a rifle amid the rubble and burning ruins of the Italian town of Ortona, evoking the fierce urban combat of December 1943. A gold maple leaf emblem, symbolizing Canada's pivotal role in the battle, appears prominently in the lower center of the field. The bold incuse legend 'BATTLE OF ORTONA' dominates the upper portion of the design, with the commemorative date '12-20-1943' inscribed along the upper rim above a stylized dark arc. The vivid coloring captures the fiery atmosphere of the engagement, with destroyed buildings visible in the background. |
