Reverse description The reverse depicts a dynamic World War II commemorative scene showing Allied glider aircraft in flight above a group of soldiers advancing under fire, evoking the airborne landings in Normandy. A row of stars frames the central scene along the inner border, flanking the curved legend 'WORLD WAR II' at the top. In the lower field, a 'V for Victory' device bears the motto 'IN GOD WE TRUST', with the inscription 'LIBERTY' and the date '1992' positioned along the lower rim.
