Description

They served with distinction, and they were willing to risk their lives to preserve the very rights and freedoms that weren't always afforded to them before, during and after the First World War.

From the unit's formation in 1916 until the disbandment in 1920, the members of No. 2 Construction Battalion persevered in the face of racism and discrimination. They provided vital support to Canada's war effort by assisting Canadian Forestry Corps lumber operations in France.

The fifth coin in the Royal Canadian Mint's annual Commemorating Black History series pays homage to No. 2 Construction Battalion, the largest all-Black battalion-sized unit in Canadian military history. Crafted in 99.99% pure silver, the coin's reverse shines a light on the battalion's history and contribution in the First World War. Despite racial prejudice, the members of No. 2 Constructions Battalion persevered in their determination to serve, and a century later, their legacy remains an inspiration.
