The famous artwork is one of the most highly recognized portrayals of the War of 1812 and of the Battle of Queenston Heights. In the foreground, Major General Isaac Brock lies dying as his soldiers struggle in vain to move him to safety. Behind him, British troops, Canadian militia, and First Nations warriors rush headlong into battle with the oncoming Americans, the fires and smoke of battle and rolling highlands of the region visible in the distance. The image is striking for its symbolic portrayal of British troops, Canadian militiamen, and First Nations warriors fighting together to fend off American invasion. Encircling the inner field is a polished silver border engraved with the word \"CANADA,\" the bilingual text \"THE BATTLE OF QUEENSTON HEIGHTS\/LA BATTAILLE DES HAUTEURSDE QUEENSTON\" and the dates \"1812-2012.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"J\u0026M Coins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40785150115915,"sku":"RCM.CA.SV.CN.003629 - BC1285","price":2249.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0556\/2872\/6347\/files\/false_6d206930-3fc8-4a30-8159-ab05ecf424e8.jpg?v=1717054813","url":"https:\/\/jandmcoins.com\/products\/canada-silver-2012-d250-1-kilo-battle-of-queenston_-war-of-1812-200th-anniv-32_151oz_-_9999-bc1285","provider":"J\u0026M Coin \u0026 Jewellery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
