Canada, Winnipeg Centennial comemorative souvenir medal, by INCO, 1974 AD., 
Medal (ø 25 mm / 20,38 g), nickel (magnetic), axes medal alignment ↑↑ (0°), plain edge, 
Obv.: 1874 - 1974 / CITY OF WINNIPEG / UNUM CUM VIRTUTE MULTORUM / WINNIPEG CENTENNIAL , "City Crest" of Winnipeg: city name and motto on ribbons, coat of arms within. 
Rev.: THE INTERNATIONAL NICKEL COMPANY OF CANADA LIMITED / Inco / THOMPSON, / MANITOBA , miner standing right in a mine, working with driller.
 . 

The coat of arms of Winnipeg is the full armorial achievement as used by the municipal government as an official symbol. This arms was granted in 1972 by the College of Arms in England and replaced an early coat of arms. Two versions are used, the full coat of arms, and a lesser version called the "City Crest".
The Fort Garry Gate at the top represents Winnipeg’s early history as a Hudson’s Bay fur trading centre. Beneath the gate is a shield divided into two parts. The top part contains thirteen gold stars on a blue field, symbolizing the thirteen former municipal governments that were unified to create the new City. The blue background depicts Winnipeg’s clear blue skies. Below the sky, a prairie crocus upon a plain green field represents Winnipeg’s location as a prairie City. The ribbons at the top and bottom represent the ribbon that ties the community together. The motto of the crest, “UNUM CUM VIRTUTE MULTORUM” is Latin for “One with the strength of many”. Two thoughts lie behind this motto. Firstly, Winnipeg is perhaps uniquely one city formed of people of all races; and secondly, it is one city formed from many cities.
