| Aanvullende informatie |
Alderney occupies a peculiar place in D-Day history: the only British territory to have been fully evacuated before German occupation in 1940, it sat under Nazi control for the entire duration of the war and was among the last places liberated in May 1945 — weeks after Germany's formal surrender. The island itself played no operational role in the June 1944 landings, which gives its commemorative issues on the subject an odd remove from the events they mark.
KM#38 is one of several D-Day commemoratives struck for Alderney by the Royal Mint in the sixtieth anniversary year.
