Description
Bravery in its purest form is the willingness to save another’s life despite personal risk. This fine silver coin celebrates the brave men and women who serve as police officers, and pays tribute to these everyday heroes across the country that risk their own lives to protect life and property. Selective colour over engraving brings to life this depiction of a police officer in action.
The Design:
The reverse design by Canadian artist Ken Ryan uses selective colour over detailed engraving in this detailed rendition of a police officer in action. Engraved in the background is an iconic police car parked on the side of a paved roadway, at the edge of an open space where a few trees dot the rolling landscape. Selective colour brings to life the dark blue uniform of the police officer in the foreground, along with the red striping on the pants and the band around the peaked police cap. Responding to a crime in progress, the officer sprints into action with right hand stretched towards the equipment belt that is within easy reach, while the left hand brings a whistle to the officer’s lips.
A wonderful addition to your collection, and a heartfelt way to honour the valour, commitment and sacrifice of these men and women in your community.
