FIRST Silver Plus Canadian Souvenier Coin

[PAdigs]

Found my very FIRST silver... Wahooo! It's a 1920 Walking Liberty no MM worn but readable and a Canadian Notre Dame souvenier coin. Feels like aluminum or an alloy of some kind. Feels good after turning up trash last few times out.

Good finds.....now, we need a little help from someone who can read French, so we can
see what is written on the one coin-like object. Help, someone? Anyone?

Maybe: "Our Lady of the Cape, Queen of Canada".
Not a clue about PPN.

WTG! Silver half dollars are few and far between so that's a really great find for your first silver!

The shrine of Our Lady of the Cape or Notre-Dame-du-Cap is located on the St. Lawrence River in the town of Cap-de-la-Madeleine (Quebec), halfway between Montreal and Quebec City. It is one of Canada’s most visited shrines, since it is dedicated to Our Lady of the Rosary, Queen of Canada.
Much more of the history of the statue (the imagine on my medallion) is found here:http://www.michaeljournal.org/ndcape.htm

Thanks for the info! I believe the souvenier coin may have been from 1954 when the statue was crowned.
