The story of this commemorative piece is deeply rooted in the solemn history of World War I and the enduring legacy of the ANZAC spirit. Inspired by Laurence Binyon’s iconic poem, "For the Fallen," which was penned during the early days of the Great War, this commemorative was created to honour the sacrifices of those who fought and fell on the battlefield. Binyon’s poem, especially its fourth stanza, has resonated through the decades as a poignant reminder of the cost of war and the courage of those who served. First recited in 1914 and now a fixture at ANZAC and Remembrance Day services, the verse embodies the grief and reverence that Australians and New Zealanders feel for their fallen soldiers. This commemorative is not just a product but a symbol of a legacy, capturing the essence of national pride, remembrance, and the shared history of sacrifice.
Crafted with great care, this exclusive Bradford Exchange commemorative features a stunning 65mm diameter golden design, honouring the bravery of those who served. Central to its design is Binyon’s powerful fourth stanza from "For the Fallen," surrounded by evocative imagery that includes the lone bugler playing "The Last Post," and the iconic figure of Simpson with his donkey, a symbol of selfless courage under fire. The reverse side is inscribed with the timeless phrase "LEST WE FORGET," serving as a solemn reminder to future generations. Limited to only 599 pieces worldwide, this commemorative is a unique keepsake, meticulously designed to pay tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice. The inclusion of red poppies adds a touch of reverence, linking this piece to the enduring symbol of remembrance. Order now!
