2011 5 Dollar Remembrance Day PNC
Poignant and superbly presented.
PNC's are something of an accidental success in Australia, their popularity has really gone from strength to strength over the years - the rarest ones are incredibly hard to get!
They're perfect for the average punter - colourful, topical and informative, and above all, affordable.
Remembrance Day, initially known as Armistice Day, marks the anniversary of the armistice on 11 November 1918, which led to the end of World War I – the Great War.
Remembrance is observed through one minute’s silence at the 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month in honour of those who have died or been wounded in all theatres of war.
2011 had a particularly significant sequence of numbers - the 11th hour, of the 11th day of the 11th month in the year 2011, that was a sequence of numbers that won't be seen again until the year 2111.
The most notable symbol of Remembrance Day is the red poppy, or Flanders poppy (Papaver rhoeas).
It gained resonance for being among the first plants to bloom on the battlefields of northern France and Belgium during the Great War.
For soldiers, the red petals represented the blood of their fallen comrades.
