| 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. The composition combines elements adapted from the United States commemorative coinage series, rendered in bold relief against a lightly textured field. |
