A very interesting post! I didn't know of this tradition, and wonder if it's known here in Canada! I shall try and find out...

Very interesting Justi . I think I would have to wander around and put a coin on some of the graves that did not have a token.

Very interesting and informative. I too had never heard of this tradition before. I hope more and more people follow through on such a tradition, as it seems to serve as a simple but wonderful tribute to the men who have fought and died in battle. I do hope that all those cemeteries collect a lot of coinage . . .
