Instead, I’ll start by saying thank you. First off, I’d like to thank the previous Executive. Your contributions are appreciated. The fact that the current Executive is pretty much the same as the previous one is a vote of confidence in the Executive as a whole as well as the course it is following. I intend to stay that course and look forward to working together with the new Executive. I’d also like to thank David Peter, who took on the job of President on after the RCNA Convention of ‘09 as an emergency measure and did a super job with it for almost 5 years. David has agreed to stay on as the Vice President, so we’re not about to lose his guidance and advice; in fact, I’ll be leaning heavily on him as I learn the ropes. He’s also agreed to stay on as Bourse Chairman, so here again, continuity is preserved and therefore everyone knows what to expect. The club is in good shape; we have money in the bank, we’re one of the most vibrant and progressive clubs in all of Canada. We have the biggest and arguably the best run coin shows in all of Canada. I fully intend to keep it this way. But we do need your help; not only do we always need volunteers but we are also looking for ideas and places to take this club. Our mandate according to our constitution is to further the study of numismatics and to educate the public, so we’re looking for ideas and volunteers to spearhead projects to get us in the schools or more into the community educating people about history and Canada through coins…this is where you the reader can help us; - it’s your club, you do have a say and we’d like to hear from you. And we are accessible… for the most part, although some of us work during the day. That said, if you’ve got an idea, I’d love to go for a coffee and hear about it. And lastly, I’d like to thank Roger Grove for his contributions in turning the Planchet into what it is today. Roger has elected to step down as Editor in Chief after close to 5 years. He took the Planchet to new heights; winning the ANA Outstanding Local Club Publication Award as well as the RCNA Best Local Newsletter Award. We wouldn’t be here without his artistic touch and his formatting wizardry. We’re also happy to report that Paul Purdie has taken over as Editor in Chief of the Planchet; we wish him success and ask that you support him in his new role. Paul has some very good ideas for where he’d like to take the Planchet, and together with Paul, we columnists are looking forward to providing you with more original material that we hope you will find interesting. Here again, we need a feedback loop and would appreciate hearing from our readers. What can we do to improve? What would you like to see more of? The bottom line is this - it is as much your club as it is any of the Executive that you supported to represent you. So we seek your input, and we look forward to hearing from you! © The Planchet May And in closing, thank you for your continued support of the ENS, Canada’s best and most vibrant coin club!

These regions are Bas-Saint-Laurent, Gaspésie, Côte-Nord and the Îles de la Madeleine. A vast territory bordered by 3000 kilometres (1900 miles) of coastline, which alternates between wide fine- sand beaches and small, rocky bays or impressive cliffs, Québec maritime has a long tradition that has been shaped by the ever-present sea. This tradition is expressed in the lighthouses that dot the coast, diverse and abundant wildlife, colourfully painted houses, gatherings on the quays and especially the joie de vivre of local residents. There are places you have to see, feel and experience… Québec maritime is one of them! Did You Know That… The tallest lighthouse in Canada is in Cap-des-Rosiers and is 34 metres (112 feet) high?

  • Press Release Witnesses: Émigré Medallists in Britain
    Press release Witnesses: émigré medallists in Britain 4 October 2018 – 7 April 2019 Room 69a, Free Sponsored by Spink The British Museum presents a new exhibition called Witnesses: émigré medallists in Britain, sponsored by Spink. This focussed exhibition uncovers the invaluable role played by artists from abroad in the development of British medallic art. On display are medals that span six centuries, documenting significant historical moments and commemorating famous British figures. This new exhibition uses objects to tell an international story, as it explores the motivations that brought artists to Britain and the ways in which they enlivened this country’s medallic landscape. The earliest works in the exhibition are from Elizabethan England. It was the Dutch artist Steven van Herwijck who introduced the art of the medal, already well-established on this continent, to Britain’s urban elite. Van Herwijck’s first visit to England was of short duration, but three years later he returned with his wife and children. Medals have been made continuously in this country ever since. One of the star objects on display will be a spectacular Waterloo medal conceived by 19thcentury Italian gem engraver Benedetto Pistrucci. This medal took 30 years to complete and bears the image of the four allied sovereigns George, Prince Regent, Francis II of Austria, Alexander I of Russia and King Frederick William III of Prussia. Although the story of each medallist who arrived over the centuries is unique, for many a position at the Royal Mint was coveted and considered the ultimate goal. Pistrucci was successful in this ambition as he arrived from Italy in 1815 and became Chief Medallist at the Royal Mint.

Historical and commemorative medals can often be used to help illustrate the plight of a People. Such is the case with medals issued during the period of the War of 1812. As wars go, this war was fairly short and had relatively few casualties1, but it had enormous impact on the future of the countries and inhabitants of the Northern Hemisphere. At the conclusion of this conflict, the geography, destiny and social structure of the newly-formed United States of America and Canada were forever and irrevocably altered.
