| Beschrijving voorzijde | Uncrowned right-facing effigy of King Charles III, modelled by engraver Raphael David Maklouf, occupying the central field. The portrait depicts the King in a contemporary style with naturalistic detail in the hair and facial features. A circular Latin legend surrounds the effigy, reading CHARLES III · D·G· REX · F·D· GIBRALTAR along the upper arc, with the date 2024 at the lower right and ONE CROWN along the lower arc, all separated by raised dots. The legend abbreviations denote 'By the Grace of God, King, Defender of the Faith.' The overall finish is gold-plated, lending the obverse a warm, lustrous appearance. |

Gibraltar has issued D-Day commemoratives with some regularity, and this Gold Beach piece is part of a broader 80th anniversary series marking the June 1944 Normandy landings. Gold Beach was the British sector, stretching roughly five miles between Ver-sur-Mer and La Rivière, where the 50th Infantry Division came ashore on the morning of June 6th against stiffened German resistance from the 352nd Infantry Division — the same unit that made Omaha so costly for American forces that day.
Gold-plated copper-nickel on a 28.28g crown blank is a common format for Gibraltar commemorative issues. Collector appetite tends to be thinner than for silver or solid gold equivalents.
