Article about: I thought you helmet guys might like to see this commemorative coin from the Royal Canadian Mint. Looks pretty cool, has the Queen on the reverse, expensive, but I like it.

    I am sure it's well intentioned, but a) it's the wrong shape (Mk.I helmets are more oblong) b) it has no lugs and c) is that really a "realistic battle worn appearance" ? I suspect the designer probably copied it from the helmet on our unknown soldier's tomb, whose sculptor blithely used a WWII Department of Pensions and Health ARP helmet as her model .

    Intersting note on the the design, the Devil is in the details.
    Still a nice tribute to cause, at least it's not a M-17.
