| Reverse description | The reverse features a bold commemorative design honouring the 50th anniversary of the D-Day landings of 6 June 1944. In the upper portion, three Allied servicemen are depicted in bust form: a Royal Navy sailor to the left, a steel-helmeted Army soldier at centre bearing a rifle, and a goggled RAF airman to the right. Below, a composite scene depicts the combined arms of the Normandy invasion, including a formation of aircraft, Sherman tanks advancing across the lower left field, and a landing craft disgorging troops at lower right. The curved legend 6 JUNE·1944·D-DAY arcs along the upper border, while the denomination 5 POUNDS is inscribed in two lines at the base of the design. |
