The circumferential legend reads CHARLES III · D · G · REX · F · D · 50 PENCE · 2024, with the denomination and date arranged along the right and lower margins respectively. The portrait is rendered in high relief with fine engraved detail to the hair and facial features, befitting the proof finish. |

| Reverse description | A dynamic, high-relief composition depicting Allied infantry soldiers advancing from a landing craft onto the Normandy beaches during the D-Day landings of 6 June 1944. Three helmeted soldiers are shown in full stride, rifles at the ready, wading ashore through breaking waves, with further figures and military equipment visible in the background alongside aircraft in the sky. The inscription D-DAY appears prominently in the upper field, flanked by the date 6 JUNE 1944, while the names of the five Allied assault beaches — UTAH, OMAHA, GOLD, JUNO, and SWORD — are inscribed along the lower portion of the field. |
