On the 100th anniversary of the end of the First World War, Slovenia is issuing collector coins as a respectful commemoration of all the victims of war that will serve to strengthen collective awareness and emphasise the values of peace, tolerance and coexistence. The cross symbolises the irreplaceable lives, and the gradual condensing of crosses to a blur symbolises the unimaginable and still today unknown number of victims. The mesh of crosses symbolises the military and also civilian victims. The vertical termination of the line of crosses visually supports the message “1918 – end of the First World War”.
