背面描述	Central colourised scene depicting a DUKW amphibious vehicle — commonly known as a 'Duck' — emerging from the sea onto a Normandy beach during the D-Day landings, with Allied naval vessels visible in the background under a blue sky. The image is applied in full colour within a circular inner field, framed by a broad black border. The legend D-DAY TO VICTORY arches along the upper border in gold lettering, while the dates 6th JUNE 1944 - 8th MAY 1945 are inscribed along the lower border, commemorating the period from the Normandy landings to Victory in Europe Day.

附加信息	Operation Dragun — spelled without the terminal 'e' — was the NATO codename for the August 1944 Allied invasion of southern France, a campaign long overshadowed by the Normandy landings two months prior. The operation put French and American forces ashore along the Côte d'Azur and drove rapidly up the Rhône valley, liberating Lyon by early September. Cook Islands has issued extensively in this commemorative niche, producing gold-plated copper pieces for the collector market rather than any circulatory purpose.
