| Reverse description | Three Allied military figures in period uniform are depicted standing together in the foreground, commemorating the 1942 Allied landings in North Africa known as Operation Torch. The central figure holds a flag or staff, flanked by soldiers wearing military helmets and battle dress, with naval vessels faintly visible to the right. The Rock of Gibraltar rises prominently in the background, serving as a symbolic link to the coin's issuer. The denomination legend TWO PENCE arcs across the upper field, while OPERATION TORCH and the commemorative date 1942 appear in the lower field, above the numeral 2. The entire design is framed by a fine beaded border. |
