Beautiful coin. I always get a little overwhelmed thinking about that time in history. Thinking of grandparents who lived through one (if not two world wars). The intensity of that. The friends lost, the horrors witnesses, the perseverance demonstrated by those who made it through alive. The pining between loved ones as couples quickly met, fell in love, married and then were separated by the war. And then I am just so sad I never asked my grandparents more about that time and their lives then when they were all still alive. It’s crazy to think about all of that, and then they just came home and lived out their years in such a normal and unassuming way.
