| Aanvullende informatie |
Guernsey's position in this commemorative is not incidental. The island was occupied by German forces from June 1940 until May 1945 — the only British territory to fall under Nazi administration during the war — making any Guernsey-issued D-Day piece carry a historical weight that a mainland British mint simply cannot replicate. The liberation of Normandy in June 1944 did not immediately free the Channel Islands; the German garrison there held out until the formal surrender nearly a year later.
