Description du revers A single veteran on Normandy Beach, depicted in both June 1944 and June 2024. On the left, the young soldier stands in his World War II uniform amidst the invasion`s chaos, with landing craft visible in the distance. On the right, the same man, now 80 years older, returns to the peaceful, war-free sands. At the coin`s centre, a Royal British Legion poppy symbolises remembrance and honours those who sacrificed their lives.
