2 Crowns - Charles III D-Day 80 - Remembrance

Gibraltar has issued commemorative gold in this weight class fairly consistently over the past two decades, but the D-Day 80th anniversary series carries specific political weight for the territory — Gibraltar's own wartime role included serving as a critical staging and communications hub for the Allied landings, with the Rock's tunnel network housing key military infrastructure. Over 16,000 Gibraltarians had already been evacuated to Britain, Northern Ireland, and Madeira by 1944, meaning the liberation of Europe was followed almost immediately by a protracted political fight over whether evacuees could even return home.
