| Beschrijving voorzijde | Uncrowned right-facing effigy of King Charles III occupies the central field, rendered in high relief with fine portrait detail showing the King's mature features, swept hair, and open collar. The legend KING CHARLES III curves along the upper left periphery, while ISLE OF MAN arcs along the upper right, both inscriptions following the heptagonal contour of the coin. The date 2024 appears in the lower field beneath the portrait, flanked by two small raised dots. The portrait is the official definitive effigy by Martin Jennings, engraved here by Craig Wilson, and the polished proof fields provide strong contrast against the sculpted relief. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a boldly graphic, poster-style composition commemorating the 80th anniversary of D-Day, dominated by a dynamic scene of Airspeed Horsa military gliders in flight and on the ground. In the upper portion, a Horsa glider is depicted airborne against a stylised sky, while the lower field shows a crashed or landed glider amid debris, wooden obstacles, and parachutists descending in the background, evoking the airborne assault of 6 June 1944. The inscription D-DAY 80 appears in large bold lettering across the upper field, with a five-pointed star serving as a separator. The denomination 50p is positioned to the right of centre in the mid-field, and the legend HORSA GLIDERS appears prominently across the lower register. The design employs a distinctive graphic-art aesthetic with strong tonal contrasts achieved through the proof finish. |
