Reverse description A vivid full-color composite scene commemorating the D-Day landings of 6–7 June 1944 fills the central field. In the upper portion, a color-printed Supermarine Spitfire bearing Allied invasion stripes flies across a sunburst background, while the lower half depicts Allied soldiers wading through surf under fire amid beach obstacles, rendered in colorized photographic style. The legend 'D-DAY' is prominently inscribed along the left arc, with the names of the five Normandy landing beaches — 'GOLD · UTAH · JUNO · SWORD · OMAHA' — arranged along the upper border. The central inscription 'SECURING THE BEACH HEAD' is displayed across the middle field alongside the date '1944 6-7 JUNE', and the operation name 'OVERLORD' appears along the lower arc.
