| Reverse description | A dynamic, densely composed commemorative scene marking the 80th Anniversary of D-Day, designed by David Lawrence. In the foreground, two Allied soldiers advance through beach obstacles, armed with rifles, rendered in fine engraved detail. The mid-ground features a Sherman tank and landing craft, while the upper field depicts paratroopers descending by parachute alongside aircraft, evoking the multi-faceted nature of Operation Overlord. The prominent arc legend 'D-DAY 80TH ANNIVERSARY' dominates the upper field, with the denomination 'FIVE POUNDS' inscribed at the base; a Churchill quotation runs around the lower periphery in smaller lettering. |
