EDITORS COMMENTS
This intricately crafted ornament, a poignant reminder of the historic Battle of Vimy Ridge during World War I, is made from repurposed rifle rounds and embellished with an Edward VII copper halfpenny coin. The Battle of Vimy Ridge, fought between April 9 and 12, 1917, was a significant victory for the Canadian Corps against the German forces. Trench art, a creative expression of soldiers during times of war, has become a testament to the human spirit and ingenuity in the face of adversity. This ornament, with its unique combination of military history and historical currency, is a fascinating example of trench art from the First World War. The 1855 French coin, engraved with the image of King Edward VII, adds an additional layer of historical significance to the piece. The intricate detailing on the rifle rounds and the seamless integration of the coin make this ornament a captivating and meaningful souvenir from the Battle of Vimy Ridge.
