| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylised cartographic design depicting the English Channel, with bold directional arrows pointing southward from England toward the Normandy coast of France, representing the Allied amphibious assault of 6 June 1944. Each arrow bears the code name of one of the five D-Day landing beaches: UTAH, OMAHA, GOLD, JUNO, and SWORD, arranged left to right in their historical geographical order. The legend 'D-DAY: 75TH ANNIVERSARY' arcs above the design, and the date '2019' appears in the lower field. The designer's initials 'ST' for Stephen Taylor are incorporated into the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The D-Day 75th anniversary in 2019 prompted a wave of British commemorative issues, and the Royal Mint's piedfort format — double the standard flan thickness — has been used since the 1980s as a premium collector vehicle with no circulation intention whatsoever. Piedforts originated as mint presentation pieces in medieval France, struck to demonstrate die quality to prospective clients rather than for monetary use.
Spink reference K55 places this firmly in the modern commemorative series, a category where piedfort survival rates approach 100% given the collector-only distribution model.
