| Obverse description | Right-facing uncrowned effigy of King Charles III after the portrait by Jody Clark, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field. The king is depicted with short hair and without regalia, in a naturalistic and contemporary style. The engraver's initials 'JC' appear discreetly below the truncation of the bust. The circular legend reads 'CHARLES III · DEI · GRA · REX · ALDERNEY' around the upper periphery, with the date '2024' positioned centrally below the effigy. A fine inner beaded border frames the design. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a powerful commemorative design marking the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings of 6 June 1944. The central field depicts a group of Allied soldiers advancing across a beach, rendered in low relief with atmospheric depth, evoking archival wartime imagery. A large numeral '80' appears prominently to the left of the composition, accompanied by the word 'YEARS'. The legend 'D-DAY' arches across the upper portion of the field, with the date range '1944-2024' inscribed beneath it. The denomination 'FIVE POUNDS' is engraved along the lower exergue. |
