The Story

[Kyt]

The British version contains the words “For Valour.” The Canadian cross uses the Latin “Pro Valore,” a nod to Canada's bilingualism

Seems to be crisper and doesn't quite have that patina, unlike the ones that Australia and New Zealand are producing for themselves. Looks good though.

I suppose its a tribute to the regard with which the Victoria Cross is held that Canada. Australia and New Zealand still call it that, albeit with the country's name added.
