| Obverse lettering | ELIZABETH II BAILIWICK OF GUERNSEY |
| Reverse description | The central field depicts a dynamic scene of Allied troops wading ashore from a landing craft during the D-Day landings of June 1944, with additional soldiers and military equipment visible amid breaking waves and a cloudy sky. At the top of the design, a circular cameo portrait of a uniformed military commander — widely identified as General Dwight D. Eisenhower — overlooks the scene. The engraver's initials appear at lower centre. The circumferential legend 50th ANNIVERSARY NORMANDY 1944-1994 arcs across the upper field, while TWO POUNDS is inscribed along the lower border, separated by decorative stops. |
