Reverse description A highly detailed relief depiction of an Allied soldier in full combat kit — steel helmet, battle dress, and webbing — aiming a rifle in the foreground, commemorating the D-Day landings of 6 June 1944. In the background, the rooftops and facades of a Norman coastal town are rendered in fine detail, with smoke rising above the buildings and a fragment of a landing craft visible to the upper left. The time inscription '09.30' appears in the left field, referencing the precise hour of the landings. The composition conveys dramatic tension and historical gravitas in a cinematic style.
