| Reverse description | Central design depicting a uniformed British soldier in full combat kit, rendered in high relief against a polished field, flanked by three iconic British Second World War tanks: a Matilda, a Churchill, and a Cromwell. The composition commemorates the United Kingdom's role in the Second World War. The dates '1939' and '1945' flank the upper legend, while the lower portion of the field bears the denomination 'TWO POUNDS'. The overall design conveys a strong military and historical theme associated with the Allied armoured campaign. |

| Additional information |
Pobjoy Mint, operating as a private minting contractor based in Surrey, has produced coins for dozens of smaller territories and dependencies since the 1960s — this piece being struck for one such issuing authority under their standard commemorative program. The "Soldier" subject places it within a broader series of military tribute issues that proliferated across Commonwealth-adjacent mints in the late 2010s, largely driven by collector market demand rather than any specific anniversary or legislative mandate.
KM#28a distinguishes this as the silver variant within a multi-metal release, the base metal version carrying the same dies.
