| Reverse description | The central design depicts the historic flotilla of civilian vessels — including merchant ships, fishing boats, yachts, and lifeboats — requisitioned during the Dunkirk evacuation of May–June 1940, rendered across a stylized seascape. The British and French flags appear above the flotilla, symbolizing the Allied cooperation of Operation Dynamo. The denomination DUNKIRK DOUBLE SOVEREIGN is inscribed below the central motif, while the commemorative legend DUNKIRK 80TH ANNIVERSARY 1940–2020 arcs around the design. The composition pays tribute to the 80th anniversary of one of the most celebrated maritime rescues in military history. |
