Dots and Dashes on a Canadian Coin


Breyer,

I found a special nickel for you in the basement. Luckily I hadn't packed all the important stuff yet. The Canadian wartime victory nickel had a Morse code message imprinted around the inside of the rim. The message reads: “We win when we work willingly.”

I just saw Mom is coming to visit in April, we’ll be sending it home with her if you can wait that long.  If not let me know and I can mail it sooner.

Here is a nice photo of a very good example.  You have to read the message right around the outside rim.  It’s hard to see, but when you find it you’ll go “Oh, there it is”.

Love you Breyer

Bro. & Sis. Bach
