∙ 9y agoThese were commemorative coins issued by Shell Oil in the early 1970's. There was a cardboard holder available from the gas station to hold them in. You could also a wooden plaque to use instead.

There are still plenty kicking around. An entire set can be purchased for about $20 (including the frame for the set) so I'd imagine the medallion itself is worth about $1 or $2, depending on how good the quality is.

What did Sir Wilfred Laurier do in Canada?
Sir Wilfred was one of Canada's most influential Prime Ministers. Throughout his time as Prime Minister, Laurier helped develop most of western Canada, settled various differences and disputes between French and English Canadians, and formed the provinces Alberta, Saskatchewan and established the Yukon Territory.
What was Wilfrid Laurier's prediction?
Sir Henri Charles Wilfrid Laurier, GCMG, PC, KC, (20 November 1841 - 17 February 1919), known as Wilfrid Laurier (French: [wilfʁid loʁje]; English /ˈlɒrieɪ/), was the seventh Prime Minister of Canada from 11 July 1896 to 6 October 1911.Canada's first francophone prime minister, Laurier is often considered one of the country's greatest statesmen. He is well known for his policies of conciliation, expanding Confederation, and compromise between French and English Canada. His vision for Canada was a land of individual liberty and decentralized federalism. He also argued for an English-French partnership in Canada. "I have had before me as a pillar of fire," he said, "a policy of true Canadianism, of moderation, of reconciliation." And he passionately defended individual liberty, "Canada is free and freedom is its nationality," and "Nothing will prevent me from continuing my task of preserving at all cost our civil liberty." Laurier was also well regarded for his efforts to establish Canada as an autonomous country within the British Empire, though he supported the continuation of the British Empire if it was based on "absolute liberty political and commercial".Laurier is the fourth-longest serving Prime Minister of Canada, behind William Lyon Mackenzie King, John A. Macdonald, and Pierre Trudeau. A 2011 Maclean's historical ranking of the Prime Ministers placed Laurier first.[1] Laurier also holds the record for the most consecutive federal elections won (4), and his 15 year tenure remains the longest unbroken term of office among Prime Ministers. In addition, his nearly 45 years (1874-1919) of service in the House of Commons is an all-time record for that house.[2] Finally, at 31 years, 8 months, Laurier was the longest-serving leader of a major Canadian political party, surpassing King by over two years. Laurier's portrait is displayed on the Canadian five-dollar bill.
