The Royal British Legion has been working in partnership with The Westminster Collection for over ten years to create a bespoke range of collectable coins, stamps and stamp covers.
Each year The Westminster Collection produce beautiful full colour Poppy Coins with a donation to The Royal British Legion for every coin sold.
Sales of the commemorative coins have resulted in the company donating an incredible £1 million to RBL.
Charles Byrne, Director General at The Royal British Legion, said:
“We are extremely proud to continue to work with The Westminster Collection. The Royal British Legion is at the heart of a national network that supports our Armed Forces community through thick and thin – ensuring that their unique contribution is never forgotten.
“We help ensure that those we serve can find the range and quality of support they need, when they need it. We also ensure the enduring responsibility of Remembrance is understood and embraced across our nation and the torch of Remembrance is passed from generation to generation.
“The Poppy Coin is not only a poignant reminder of those who have fought and sacrificed their lives; it also helps RBL to carry out our vital work supporting servicemen and women, veterans and their families.”
We can't think of a more poignant and worthy cause than this.Stephen AllenChairman of The Westminster Collection

support the future of the living is vital, and we are extremely proud to
continue our long-term partnership.”
