| Reverse description | The central motif depicts a Lancaster bomber in flight above a breached dam, with water cascading dramatically through the gap in high relief, commemorating Operation Chastise of May 1943. To the lower left of the scene, an image of the British Distinguished Flying Medal is shown within a circular cartouche. The legend WORLD WAR II arcs prominently along the upper periphery, with RAID ON THE DAMS inscribed in two lines within the upper field to the left of the aircraft. The denomination $10 appears in the lower exergue. The design is rendered in proof finish with frosted relief against a mirror-polished field. |
