| Reverse description | A finely detailed depiction of Avro Lancaster heavy bombers of RAF 617 Squadron flying in low-level formation over a dam during the famous Dambusters raid of May 1943. The foreground features a large Lancaster in close perspective, with a second aircraft visible in the middle ground and a third silhouetted against dramatic streaks of anti-aircraft fire and explosive bursts in the background. The legend '75TH ANNIVERSARY' arcs along the upper border within a recessed band, while 'OPERATION CHASTISE' is inscribed along the lower border in the same style, framing the central scene. |
