| Reverse description | Full-color photographic-style portrait of three senior Allied commanders — Air Chief Marshal Arthur Tedder (left), General Dwight D. Eisenhower (center), and Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery (right) — seated at a table before a map of the Normandy invasion coastline. The inscription 'D-DAY' appears prominently along the left arc, with 'MISSION PLAN' and 'SHAEF 1943▶44' inscribed vertically to the left of the figures. The names of the five D-Day landing beaches — 'GOLD · UTAH · JUNO · SWORD · OMAHA' — are inscribed along the upper arc, and 'OVERLORD' appears along the lower arc.
